Januar 2018 Amnesty International (AI) begrüßt die Verschiegung der geplanten Zwangsrückführung von Flüchtlingen nach Myanmar. Erst müssten die Rohingyas Zeit haben, die traumatischen Erlebnisse aufzuarbeiten. Außerdem müsse sichergestellt sein, dass die Flüchtlinge in ihrer Hei- mat sicher vor Missbrauch und Gewalt leben können. 3.

März 2018 In einem „Offenen Brief“ fordert AI Sicherheit für zwei Marma-Frauen und Ermittlungen gegen Armeeangehörige wegen sexuellen Miss- brauchs und Gewalt. In Narayanganj gedenkt Vater Rafiur Rabbi seines vor fünf Jahren er- mordeten damals 17-jährigen Sohns Tanwir Muhammad Taqi. Trotz starker Hinweise und Zeugenaussagen, dass Ajmeri Osman und zehn Komplizen für den Mord verantwortlich sind, verliefen die Ermittlungen ohne Ergebnis. Ajmeri ist der Sohn des früheren Jatiya-Party-Abge- ordneten Nasim Osman und Neffe des amtierenden Awami-League- Parlamentariers Shamim Osman, der noch für weitere Morde verant- wortlich sein soll. 12. März 2018 Auf dem Gelände ehemaliger muslimischer Dörfer in Myanmar baut die Armee nach Informationen von Amnesty International Militärstützpunk- te. Die Menschenrechtsorganisation berichtet in Rangun, dass das Mili- tär des südostasiatischen Landes dort jetzt neue Häuser, Grenzposten, Hubschrauberlandeplätze und anderen Anlagen errichte.

    THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF HOMICIDE IN BANGLADESH: A CONTENT ANALYSIS ON REPORTS OF MURDER IN DAILY NEWSPAPERS T. M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF HOMICIDE IN BANGLADESH: A CONTENT ANALYSIS ON REPORTS OF MURDER IN DAILY NEWSPAPERS T. M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad Reg no. 111 Session: 2011-2012 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Philosophy June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository DEDICATION To my parents and sister Dhaka University Institutional Repository Abstract As homicide is one of the most comparable and accurate indicators for measuring violence, the aim of this study is to improve understanding of criminal violence by providing a wealth of information about where homicide occurs and what is the current nature and trend, what are the socio-demographic characteristics of homicide offender and its victim, about who is most at risk, why they are at risk, what are the relationship between victim and offender and exactly how their lives are taken from them. Additionally, homicide patterns over time shed light on regional differences, especially when looking at long-term trends. The connection between violence, security and development, within the broader context of the rule of law, is an important factor to be considered. Since its impact goes beyond the loss of human life and can create a climate of fear and uncertainty, intentional homicide (and violent crime) is a threat to the population. Homicide data can therefore play an important role in monitoring security and justice.

Humen are equally entitled to universally declared ‘human rights’ and deserve no discrimination. These rights are interrelated, interdependent, inalienable and indivisible.1 HStates are the most responsible authorities to protect these rights with the help of law enforcement agencies so that people can indulge their rights without fear and favor. The government is the legitimate custodian and savior of the civil rights of all its citizens. According to social scientists - when a state fails to ensure the protection of human rights of its citizens, it is considered as failed state.

    Half Yearly Human Rights Bulletin Bangladesh Situation January-June, 2019 HUMAN RIGHTS SUPPORT SOCIETY (HRSS) www.hrssbd.org Half Yearly Human Rights Bulletin, Jan- Jun’19 Editorial Board Chairman Barrister Shahjada Al Amin Kabir Advisor Md. Nur Khan Editor Ijajul Islam Executive Editors Research and Publication Investigation and Fact Findings Md: Imamul Hossain Md Saiful Islam Documentation and Monitoring Ast. Investigation and Fact Findings Aziz Aktar Rizwanul Haq 1 Half Yearly Human Rights Bulletin, Jan- Jun’19 Acknowledgement In spite of having constitutional obligation and international laws and treaties, human rights are drastically violated in Bangladesh. Although the state is the defender of all sorts of human rights, in most of the cases related to human rights violation, state authorities fail to protect its citizen‟s right with the help of law enforcement agencies so that people can enjoy their rights without fear and favor. In the first six months of 2019, According to HRSS‟s half yearly human rights observation bulletin, violation of women rights specially incident of rape, extrajudicial killing, attack on minorities, political violence, border killing, and violence and manipulation of local election revealed a very glooming scenario of the overall human rights situation in Bangladesh. The situation reached such abysmal state that even the common people feel insecure everywhere whether it‟s their bedroom or street. This shocking condition of human rights in Bangladesh motivates HRSS to work hard to raise awareness both home and abroad. We hope that the contents of this bulletin will help the people understand overall human rights situation in the country.

Since its inception in 1994, Odhikar has established itself as a credible and reliable organisation in Bangladesh regarding the observation of elections, both national and local. Internationally it has earned a good reputation and established relationships with regional election and democracy campaign organisations. Odhikar does not limit its election observing activities only within observing the procedural aspects of elections, but it also watches the condition of the civil and political rights of the electorate. Being a member of the Election Working Group (EWG), Odhikar observed 56 constituencies of 40 districts under 6 divisions during the 2008 national election1. A single team consists of five mobile election observers, deployed in each of the 56 constituencies. Odhikar observers were responsible for identifying and gathering key information on irregularities, intimidation, violation of the election Code of Conduct and incidents of election-related violence within each constituency. Background Article 123 (3) of the Constitution of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh states that “A general election of Members of Parliament shall be held within ninety days after Parliament is dissolved, whether by reason of the expiration of its term or otherwise than by reason of such expiration”.: According to Bangladesh's electoral system, a caretaker government is obligated to hold the elections in due time, which must be held within ninety days of dissolving a parliament2.
