A murder case has been filed against 101 people, including former Sheikh Hasina, in connection with the death of a teacher during the recent student protest in Bogra.

Sikander Ali, the father of the deceased Salim Hossain, 35, filed the case on Friday with Bogra Sadar police station, naming Hasina and Quader as the instigators of the killing, reported Dhaka Tribune.

Bangladesh turmoil

Bangladesh witnessed turmoil in recent weeks which began with students protesting against job quotas and then slowly spiralled into a mass movement that demanded former PM Sheikh Hasina's resignation.

The violence led to the death of over 300 people.

The showdown took a new turn when former PM Sheikh Hasina was forced to resign which led to the toppling of her government and ending her 15-year rule.

Hasina escaped to India in a helicopter.
