Families of those killed during the July uprising across Bangladesh have expressed satisfaction with the court verdict sentencing former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to death for alleged murder and crimes against humanity. However, they voiced concerns about whether the sentence will be carried out and urged the interim government to ensure its swift implementation. Many relatives stated that only the execution would bring peace to the souls of their loved ones, while others demanded that Hasina be brought back from India to face justice. Emotional reactions poured in from victims’ parents, spouses, and siblings across multiple districts, including Patuakhali, Magura, Gaibandha, Jamalpur, and Chattogram. Several family members described the verdict as divine justice but insisted that true closure would come only after the punishment is executed. They also called for ensuring that no more families suffer similar losses in the future. The overall sentiment among the families remains one of cautious relief mixed with a strong demand for timely justice.
