Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s life, as well as her politics, had been defined by an early trauma at once personal in its pain and national in its imprint. In 1975, her father, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Bangladesh’s charismatic founding leader, and most of their family were massacred in a military coup. Ms. Hasina, who was abroad at the time, was forced into exile in India. Her eventual return and elevation to prime minister embodied Bangladesh’s hopes of a better, more democratic future. She grew more authoritarian, crushing dissent and exuding an entitlement that treated Bangladesh as her rightful inheritance.
