前孟加拉国总理谢赫·哈西娜表示，尽管面临因其政府镇压抗议者而被判处的死刑，她仍坚定承诺将于下个月从印度流亡地返回祖国，据印度新闻社报道。
Sheikh Hasina says she will return to Bangladesh next month despite a death sentence. Her pledge risks immediate arrest as the banned Awami League faces sustained pressure. Former Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina has said she remains committed to returning home from exile in India next month, despite facing a death sentence over her government's crackdown on protesters, reports news agency Press Trust of India.
哈西娜在2024年大规模起义后被迫下台，她表示知晓回国后可能面临逮捕、监禁、酷刑甚至被杀害，但不愿在支持者遭受苦难时继续滞留国外。
Hasina, who was removed from power after a mass uprising in 2024, said she was aware that she could be arrested, imprisoned, tortured or killed after her return but did not want to remain abroad while her supporters suffered.
学生主导的抗议迫使哈西娜下台后，她逃往印度并一直居住至今。孟加拉国一特别法庭2025年以反人类罪判处她死刑，裁定她下令实施镇压，导致数百人死亡、数千人受伤。
Hasina fled to India after student-led protests forced her from power and has lived there since then. A Bangladeshi special tribunal sentenced her to death in 2025 for crimes against humanity, ruling that she had ordered the crackdown in which hundreds of people were killed and thousands injured.
联合国报告称近1400人丧生。哈西娜否认有任何不法行为，拒绝接受法庭判决，并质疑审判的合法性。
A United Nations report said nearly 1,400 people were killed. Hasina has denied wrongdoing, rejected the tribunal's verdict and challenged the legitimacy of the trial.
孟加拉国多次寻求引渡她，但印度拒绝移交。哈西娜最早于8月宣布打算12月回国。
Bangladesh has repeatedly sought her extradition, but India has declined to hand her over. Hasina first announced in August that she intended to return in December.
“如果死亡是我的命运，我宁愿死在自己的国土上，死在自己的人民中间，”据印度新闻社报道，她在给美联社的电子邮件回复中表示，“所以，我将返回孟加拉国。这个决定没有改变。”问题上周发给她，她于周三作出回复。哈西娜曾于2009年至2024年担任总理，未透露计划如何从印度返回。她抵达孟加拉国时可能被逮捕。
“If death is my destiny, I would rather die on the soil of my own country, among my own people,” she told The Associated Press in an email response, according to PTI. “So, I will return to Bangladesh. That decision has not changed.”The questions were sent to her last week, and she responded on Wednesday. Hasina, who served as prime minister from 2009 to 2024, did not disclose how she planned to return from India. She could be arrested upon arrival in Bangladesh.
“我知道回国时可能被逮捕。我可能被监禁、酷刑甚至杀害。我完全清楚这些可能性。但我不能余生都在远处眼睁睁看着我的人民受苦，”她说。
“I know that I may be arrested when I return. I may be imprisoned, tortured or even killed. I am fully aware of those possibilities. But I cannot spend the rest of my life watching my people suffer from a distance,” she said.
哈西娜被推翻后，诺贝尔和平奖得主穆罕默德·尤努斯接管了临时政府，并领导该国长达18个月。今年2月，前总理卡莉达·齐亚之子、哈西娜长期政敌塔里克·拉赫曼在尤努斯政府主持下举行的选举中大获全胜。哈西娜领导的人民联盟被禁止参加该次选举。
After Hasina's removal, Nobel Peace Prize laureate Muhammad Yunus took charge of an interim administration and led the country for the next 18 months. In February, Tarique Rahman, the son of former prime minister Khaleda Zia and a long-time political rival of Hasina, won a landslide election held under the Yunus administration. Hasina's Awami League was barred from contesting the election.
哈西娜计划回国之际，人民联盟正面临前途未卜的局面，且正处于打压之中。该党仍被禁，高层领导人已被捕或被迫流亡。
Hasina's planned return comes as the Awami League faces an uncertain future amid a crackdown. The party remains banned, while senior leaders have been arrested or forced into exile.
哈西娜声称，自2024年8月以来，至少有2万名党员被杀害，数千人被捕、遭酷刑或被迫躲藏。她表示，支持者也因政治立场失去了住房、生意和生计。
Hasina claimed that at least 20,000 party members had been killed since August 2024, while thousands had been arrested, tortured or forced into hiding. She said supporters had also lost their homes, businesses and livelihoods because of their political affiliations.
“根本不存在正常的政治或民主环境，”她说，并指控当局系统性地打压她的政党。
“There is no normal political or democratic environment,” she said, accusing the authorities of systematically suppressing her party.
包括人权观察在内的多个人权组织近几个月来批评拉赫曼政府侵犯公民和政治权利。政府则表示，逮捕行动涉及具体指控。
Several rights groups, including Human Rights Watch, have criticised Rahman's government over assaults on civil and political rights in recent months. The government, however, has said the arrests relate to specific charges.
当被问及是否指望美国、印度等国施压孟加拉国确保她安全回国时，哈西娜表示，她不寻求外国庇护。
Asked whether she expected countries such as the United States and India to pressure Bangladesh to ensure her safe return, Hasina said she was not seeking foreign protection.
“我重视与所有国家的友谊与合作。这始终是我们的外交政策。但我不需要外国势力的许可就能回到自己的国家，”她说。
“I value friendship and cooperation with all nations. That has always been our foreign policy. But I do not need the blessing of a foreign power to return to my own country,” she said.
全球人权组织和独立观察人士早前曾对临时政府执政期间激进团体崛起、试图压制自由派力量表示担忧。少数族裔群体也称遭受恐吓。尤努斯领导的政府否认了这些指控，而现政府则因该国治安局势恶化而面临批评。
Global rights groups and independent observers had earlier raised concerns about the rise of radical groups that sought to suppress liberal forces during the interim administration. Minority groups have also said they faced intimidation. The Yunus-led government denied the allegations, while the current government has faced criticism over the country's worsening law and order situation.
哈西娜在执政15年间对激进团体采取强硬立场，她表示担忧孟加拉国强硬派影响力日益增长。“当前的政治环境让极端分子变得更加自信，”她说。总理办公室新闻部门未回应美联社的置评请求。
Hasina, who took a tough stance against radical groups during her 15 years in power, said she was concerned about the growing influence of hardliners in Bangladesh. “The present political environment has allowed extremist elements to become more confident,” she said. The press wing of the prime minister's office did not respond to an Associated Press request for comment.
尽管面临死刑判决和被捕可能，且其被禁政党遭遇打压、领导人和支持者仍处于压力之下，哈西娜坚称将于下个月返回孟加拉国。
Hasina has maintained that she will return to Bangladesh next month despite the death sentence and the possibility of arrest, as her banned party faces a crackdown and its leaders and supporters remain under pressure.
