The attack followed Hasina&#8217;s planned online speech from exile in India, where she fled after a violent student-led uprising against her 15-year rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Protesters, some armed with tools, gathered to demolish the historic building, which Hasina had converted into a museum. They expressed anger over Hasina&#8217;s speech, viewing it as a challenge to the newly formed interim government led by Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus. Many protesters labeled the house a &#8220;symbol of fascism,&#8221; calling for its destruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"759\" height=\"502\" src=\"https:\/\/shiawaves.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/02\/Screenshot-2025-02-06-140831.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-118312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shiawaves.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/02\/Screenshot-2025-02-06-140831.png 759w, https:\/\/shiawaves.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/02\/Screenshot-2025-02-06-140831-300x198.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 759px) 100vw, 759px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The unrest also targeted properties belonging to Hasina\u2019s Awami League supporters.
