India and Bangladesh face off over activist's death
Tensions are running high between India and Bangladesh after the killing of Sharif Osman Hadi, a prominent face in the anti-government protests that forced the collapse of the Sheikh Hasina government.
India called in Bangladesh's top diplomat, demanding a full investigation into Hadi's death, especially after some accused India of being involved—sparking protests on both sides of the border.
Diplomatic fallout and protests escalate
Bangladesh responded by summoning India's envoy following vandalism at its high commission in New Delhi and a visa center.
Protests have grown more intense, with crowds even trying to break into an Indian mission in Chittagong.
As things heat up, India has paused its visa services at the Chittagong mission in Bangladesh.
Meanwhile, Indian officials have firmly denied any role in Hadi's death, calling out "extremist narratives" fueling the unrest.
