The decision to broadcast Sheikh Hasina's trial live

It has been decided in a high-level meeting of the government that the trial of the genocide case against former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will be broadcast live due to the violence during the anti-discrimination student movement.

He said that the present government will do everything for transparency in the trial.
