VOICED : Bangladesh: elecciones en el ano mas sang

Bangladesh is preparing for presidential elections amid unprecedented violence. The elections, likely to consolidate Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's power, are boycotted by opposition parties and rejected by Western nations due to the violence. Local media reports that 77% of voters oppose the elections, which exclude 21 opposition parties and involve only government allies. Over 140 people have died in pre-election violence, with attacks on buses and clashes between pro-government and Islamist groups. The US and Europe will not send observers, and analysts warn of increased violence and extremism post-election.
