Hasina fled to India on 5 Aug after protests, which began as a student-led movement against public sector job quotas, escalated into some of the deadliest unrest, resulting in over 700 deaths.
Bangladeshi prof Ali Riaz is currently teaching at US's Illinois State University. He is also an author, ex-journalist & consultant for several international organisations.
Yunus was apparently referring to Hasina’s statement in which she demanded ‘justice,’ saying those involved in recent ‘terror acts’ and killings must be identified and punished.
This is the first official statement issued by RSS on matter. A day earlier, RSS' women’s wing claimed efforts were being made to create instability in India amid Bangladesh violence.
While Hasina has a valid visa, indications are that the UK, which has called for a UN-led probe into the violence in Bangladesh, is not willing to give her asylum or temporary refuge.

BJP MP Saumitra Khan says CM 'wants to turn Bengal into Greater Bangladesh', adds that his party 'will not allow Rohingyas in the country till we are alive'.
