A group of Bangladeshi expatriates in Finland on Thursday morning formed a human chain in front of Finnish parliament protesting against the violation of human rights under the regime of the present interim government, said a press release.
Organised by Finland Awami League, participants in the demonstration termed the interim government led by Professor Muhammad Yunus illegal and demanded immediate resignation of the government.
They also held the Yunus-led government responsible for taking various anti-liberation moves, patronising extremism and oppressing religious minorities and progressive forces.
Bangladesh Awami League President and former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who was ousted last year in a movement participated in the demonstration remotely and condemned the recent incidents of human rights violation in Bangladesh.
She also accused Muhammad Yunus of capturing the state power in cooperation with the international conspirators on August 5, 2024.
In mid July, 2025, at least four people were killed and several injured when military and members of the law enforcing agency allegedly fired gunshots at the agitating people, mostly supporters and activists of the Bangladesh Awami League in Gopalganj district headquarter in Bangladesh.
Earlier in May 2025, the interim government in Bangladesh banned all activities of the Awami League, the political party headed by Hasina.
