早在总理谢赫·哈西娜被暴力抗议者迫使下台之前，穆罕默德·尤努斯从巴黎飞抵达卡并接管临时政府的舞台就已经搭好了。在抗议者与尤努斯之间充当渠道的人，是一名供职于法国新闻社法新社的记者。这一情况由这名法新社记者的同事披露，此人后来成为尤努斯的新闻秘书。时任法新社达卡分社社长的沙菲库尔·阿拉姆于10月28日周三在脸书上发帖称，2024年8月，抗议者需要一个“搭桥者”，而他在法新社事实核查部门的同事卡达鲁丁·希希尔“挺身而出，承担了这一关键角色”。
The stage had been set for Muhammad Yunus to fly in from Paris into Dhaka and take charge of the interim regime even before Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was forced out by violent protesters. The person who acted as the conduit between the protesters and Yunus was a journalist working for French news agency AFP. This has been revealed by the AFP journalist's colleague, who went on to become Yunus's press secretary. Shafiqul Alam, then the bureau head of AFP in Dhaka, said in a post on Facebook on Wednesday, October, 28 that the protesters needed a "bridge-builder" in August 2024 and his colleague in AFP's fact-check department, Qadaruddin Shishir, "stepped up to fulfil that critical role".The July-August protests, which began as a student-led anti-quota agitation, had been projected as a spontaneous protest against Sheikh Hasina's government.
7月至8月的抗议起初是一场由学生主导的反配额运动，此前一直被描述为针对谢赫·哈西娜政府的自发抗议。然而，如今出现了更多证据表明，推翻哈西娜领导的政府，或许正是某些人所说的“政权更迭行动”。《今日印度数字版》最先报道了军方军官和伊斯兰主义者在抗议中所扮演的角色，这些抗议迫使哈西娜于2024年8月5日离开孟加拉国。
However, more evidence has now emerged that the toppling of the Hasina-led government might have been what some would term a "regime-change operation".India Today Digital was the first to report on the role played by Army officers and Islamists in the protests that forced Hasina to leave Bangladesh on August 5, 2024.
到7月底，对消息灵通的人来说已经很明显：抗议活动已被渗透，哈西娜别无选择，只能下台。沙菲库尔·阿拉姆最新的脸书帖子显示，尤努斯的到来是在哈西娜下台之前就计划好的，而非自然演进的结果。“当学生领袖希望联系诺贝尔奖得主穆罕默德·尤努斯教授，并邀请他在哈西娜下台后的局面中领导临时政府时，他们需要一个值得信赖的搭桥者。”
It had been evident to those with ears to the ground by the end of July that the protests had been infiltrated and that Hasina didn't have an alternative but to step down. Shafiqul Alam's latest Facebook post shows that the arrival of Yunus was planned ahead of Hasina's exit, and not a natural progression." When student leaders wanted to reach out to Nobel Laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus and invite him to head the interim government in a post-Hasina scenario, they needed a trusted bridge-builder.
沙菲库尔·阿拉姆10月28日在脸书上写道：“卡达鲁丁·希希尔挺身而出，承担了这一关键角色。”阿拉姆说，希希尔是法新社达卡事实核查团队的编辑，在办公室里就坐在离他一码远的地方，“在完全保密的情况下管理着这场高风险的行动”。阿拉姆写道：“正是希希尔代表学生领袖首先联系了这位2006年诺贝尔和平奖得主，并促成了双方最初的会谈。”
Qadaruddin Shishir stepped up to fulfil that critical role," wrote Shafiqul Alam on Facebook on October 28. Alam said Shishir, who was the editor of the AFP Dhaka Fact Check team, sat just a yard from him in office and "managed the high-stakes operation in complete secrecy."" It was Shishir who first approached the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize winner on behalf of the student leaders and facilitated the initial talks between the two parties," wrote Alam.
沙菲库尔·阿拉姆解释说，尽管哈西娜政府已摇摇欲坠，但这仍是一场“高风险的行动”。如果哈西娜嗅到一丝风声，“希希尔和我们整个法新社团队很可能最终会被关进‘镜屋’”。“镜屋”字面意思是镜子之屋，指的是据称由哈西娜政权运营的秘密酷刑和杀戮窝点。“镜屋”一词源于政治犯在单独监禁中除了自己谁也见不到的生活。
Shafiqul Alam explained that though the Hasina government was on its last leg, it was still a "high-stakes operation". Had Hasina got a whiff of it, "Shishir and our entire AFP team would likely have ended up in an Aynaghar." Aynaghar, which literally translates to the House of Mirrors, refers to the secret torture and killing dens allegedly operated by the Hasina regime. The term Aynaghar is from the solitary life that political prisoners spent without seeing anyone other than themselves."
阿拉姆写道：“在整个过程中，希希尔始终保持异常冷静和镇定，甚至在他悄悄开始收集该政权正在犯下的冷血谋杀的视频证据时也是如此。”这篇帖文发布之际，正值谢赫·哈西娜所承诺的从印度流亡地返回孟加拉国的倒计时。就在10天前，她还重申将于12月回国。哈西娜10月19日在一个线上活动中说：“我将在12月回到孟加拉国。”
Throughout it all, Shishir remained remarkably cool and composed, even as he quietly started gathering video evidence of the cold-blooded murders being committed by the regime," wrote Alam. The post comes amid the countdown of Sheikh Hasina's promised return from exile in India to Bangladesh. Even 10 days ago, she reiterated that she would return in December."I will go back to Bangladesh in December," Hasina said on October 19 at an online event.
她说：“我不害怕。我知道他们可能杀我、逮捕我、折磨我。”以此表达她的决心。2024年的大规模抗议迫使她登上一架直升机，随后又登上一架飞机，于2024年8月5日飞往印度的欣登空军基地。此后她一直流亡在德里。周三（10月28日），一名孟加拉国空军前军官的尸体在达卡的一条河中被发现，据报道此人与一段显示哈西娜8月5日逃离该国的视频有关。
"I am not afraid. I know they can kill me, arrest me and torture me," she said, expressing her resolve. The 2024 mass protests forced her to board a helicopter and then a plane to fly into India's Hindon Airbase on Ausgut 5, 2024. She has been in exile in Delhi since. On Wednesday (October 28), the body of a former Bangladesh Air Force officer, reportedly linked to a video showing Hasina fleeing the country on August 5, was found dead in a river in Dhaka.
这段哈西娜从汽车换乘直升机的视频，据称是由28岁的空军上尉KM·塔赫西夫·苏里拍摄的。
The clip of Hasina switching from cars to a helicopter was allegedly shot by 28-year-old Flight Lieutenant KM Tahsif Souri.
苏里的家人已提出谋杀指控，质疑其死亡的具体情况。苏里本人于2024年8月被解职。
The family of Souri, who was dismissed from service in August 2024 itself, has alleged murder, raising questions about the circumstances of his death.A day after Hasina's departure, student protest leaders on August 6, 2024 publicly proposed Muhammad Yunus as the chief adviser of an interim government.
哈西娜离境一天后，学生抗议领袖于2024年8月6日公开提议由穆罕默德·尤努斯担任临时政府首席顾问。这一宣布由纳希德·伊斯兰和阿西夫·马哈茂德等学生领袖作出。两人后来均在尤努斯政府中担任顾问。
The announcement was made by student leaders including Nahid Islam and Asif Mahmud. Both later served as advisers in the Yunus administration.
2024年8月8日，即哈西娜出逃数日内，尤努斯从巴黎飞抵达卡哈兹拉特·沙贾拉尔国际机场。他出任临时政府首席顾问，并于今年2月16日卸任，此前孟加拉国民族主义党（BNP）的塔里克·拉赫曼当选总理。
On August 8, 2024, within days of Hasina fleeing, Yunus landed at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka from Paris. He became the chief advisor to the interim government, and stepped down on February 16 this year, after Tarique Rahman of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) was elected the Prime Minister. Several of the leaders of the anti-Hasina protest were made part of his interim government, who then went on to form the National Citizen Party, which fought the elections as part of the Jamaat alliance.
反哈西娜抗议的多名领袖被纳入其临时政府，他们随后组建了国家公民党，该党作为伊斯兰大会党联盟的一部分参加了选举。
In September 2024, at an event in New York, Yunus introduced special assistant Mahfuz Alam as the "brain behind the whole revolution"."It's amazing. Meticulously designed thing. It's not just suddenly came.
2024年9月，在纽约的一场活动上，尤努斯将特别助理马赫福兹·阿拉姆介绍为“整场革命的幕后大脑”。
It's not like that. Very well-designed. Even the leadership pattern.
尤努斯在2024年谈到7月至8月抗议是如何策划时说道：“这太惊人了。精心设计的东西。不是突然就来的。不是那样的。设计得非常好。甚至连领导模式也是如此。人们不知道谁是领导人。所以你抓不到某个人然后说，好了，结束了。它并没有结束。”
People don't know who the leader is. So you can't catch one and say, okay, it's over. It's not over," Yunus said in 2024 about how the July-August protests were planned.
当学生和其他抗议者身处现场、尤努斯身在法国之际，法新社的西希尔发挥了超出记者职责的作用。他是桥梁，也是告诉尤努斯是时候回国接任的人，因为哈西娜政权很快就会被推翻。
With students and other protesters on the ground, and Yunus in France, it was Shishir of French news agency AFP who played a role beyond journalists'. He was the bridge and the person to tell Yunus it was time to return and fill in as the Hasina regime would be toppled soon.- Ends
