NEW DELHI: A huge confrontation is in the making between the Muhammad Yunus regime and the Bangladesh Army. Although an uneasy calm persisted for long between the two sides, matters have become worse following the arrest warrants issued by the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) against 24 army officers.
The ICT issued the warrants for their alleged involvement in enforced disappearances, torture, and secret detentions. These developments have led to immense frustration within the ranks.
Army Chief, General Waker-uz-Zaman, is facing immense pressure from his officers, and this led him to cancel his visits to India and Saudi Arabia.
