HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT: Human Rights watch
January 2010
Bangladesh
Bangladesh returned to democratic rule in 2009. Constitutionally guaranteed rights,
suspended during most of 2007 and 2008, were in place and the elected government under
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina made strong commitments to address a number of serious
human rights problems. Yet extrajudicial executions, custodial torture, and impunity for
members of the security forces continue. Following a bloody rebellion within the Bangladesh
Rifles (BDR), thousands of guards were arrested, many tortured, and some killed in
detention.
