The widening legal net in Bangladesh includes over 10,000 arrests, invoking long-term detention laws for charges like vandalism and arson during the student protest crackdown.
Authorities blame opposition parties for turning peaceful protests violent, with a death toll over 200. The crackdown aims to prevent regrouping, targeting student leaders and political opponents.
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's government is accused of using the crackdown as a tactic to crush political opponents, following a pattern of rounding up opposition leaders under her rule for 15 years.
