Paris, France; October 15, 2024: JusticeMakers Bangladesh in France (JMBF) strongly condemns and protests the recent announcement by the Ministry of Home Affairs of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh interim government, which grants indemnity to those involved in the violent incidents during the July-August 2024 mass uprising in Bangladesh. This decision, which effectively exempts those responsible for violence and disorder from facing legal consequences, represents a betrayal of the principles of justice and accountability.
