Bangladesh’s Attorney General, Mohammad Asaduzzaman, stated that the victorious force emerging from the recent mass uprising will determine the nature and legitimacy of any future referendum. Speaking at a discussion in Jhenaidah’s Shailkupa upazila on November 14, he emphasized that this outcome will guide the country’s future legal and political direction. Asaduzzaman also declared that the Awami League is now considered a banned entity and that any activities under its name would be treated as criminal offenses, with the law proceeding accordingly. The event, held at poet Golam Mostafa’s ancestral home to mark his birth and death anniversary, was organized by the local administration and attended by several dignitaries, including the vice-chancellor of Islamic University and senior government officials.
