Injustice and Nepotism: How Bangladesh’s Failing System Leaves Women Unsafe in Homes and Universities
In Bangladesh, women face growing insecurity both at home and in educational institutions due to a failing justice system and rampant political favoritism. Recent cases, including the assault of a father seeking justice for his daughter’s attempted rape and the harassment of a female student by a politically connected leader, highlight how political influence shields perpetrators while victims are ignored or silenced. Without urgent reform to ensure impartial justice, Bangladesh risks perpetuating a culture where the powerful escape accountability, leaving women vulnerable and justice out of reach.
