Rumors of a coup in Bangladesh amid political tension highlight military-government friction and possible leadership changes. Officials deny, but reports persist.

Rumors of Coup in Bangladesh Ignite Tensions

Rumors of a coup in Bangladesh fuel tension, linking Army Chief to potential moves amid denials by officials. International observers watch closely.

Coup rumors in Bangladesh amid political tensions

Amid political tension in Bangladesh, coup rumors linked to Army Chief General Zaman arise, despite denials from officials amid reports of military friction. Watching keenly.

Amidst rising political tensions in Bangladesh, rumors of a military coup have set social media abuzz. The speculation follows significant political developments and heightened military presence across the country, particularly in Dhaka.
Despite the swirling rumors, neither Professor Muhammad Yunus, currently serving as Bangladesh's interim leader, nor Army Chief General Waqar Uz Zaman has publicly addressed these claims.
General Zaman is at the center of these speculations, especially as Interim Leader Md Yunus faces continuous public protests. The Army Chief's recent meetings concerning national security have further fueled rumors of potential friction between military leadership and the government.
During these meetings, General Zaman reportedly emphasized the need for increased vigilance due to rising extremism within the country.
Nasimul Haque Gani, the Home Secretary of Bangladesh's interim government, has dismissed talk of a national emergency as mere "gossip."
However, Indian media outlets recently reported internal tensions within the Bangladeshi military, suggesting that General Zaman himself might be at risk of a coup by factions within the army with pro-Pakistani leanings. For the time being, it appears that General Zaman maintains control over the armed forces.
In recent speeches, General Zaman has hinted at failing law and order conditions and has advocated for stronger security measures in Dhaka.
These statements coincide with claims from Asaduzzaman Fuad, General Secretary of the student-led Aamar Bangladesh Party, who accused the Army Chief of conspiring with President Mohammed Shahabuddin to establish a new interim government.
Fuad's comments reflect the charged political atmosphere following the violent protests in July 2024, which escalated into a crisis resulting in the exile of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
Reports of Fuad&rsquo;s potential arrest have intensified speculation about a possible military intervention. The Aamar Bangladesh Party, however, has denied such claims of arrest.
Adding to the fervor, a video from last month featuring the Army Chief&rsquo;s speech has resurfaced online. In it, General Zaman warns, "Later you will say I did not warn you, so I am warning you.
If you cannot forget your differences and work together, if you keep mudslinging at each other, fight each other, and kill each other, the country's and this community's freedom will go in vain."
The Army Chief further stated his intention to stabilize the country before stepping down: "I am telling you today, otherwise you will say that I did not warn you. I have no other intentions, I have only one intention. I want to take leave after placing the country and people in a good place.
I have had enough for the last seven to eight months. We want to place the country and people in a good place and return to the barracks," he asserted, as captured in clips circulated by Bangladeshi news portals.
As speculation continues, the situation in Bangladesh remains fluid, with international observers closely monitoring the developments in this beleaguered nation.

From army chief to dictator to President to outcast - with such a tumultuous path, Pervez Musharraf attracted many enemies, and that too from surprising quarters.
Musharraf was the target of multiple assassination attempts during his tenure as President. What is interesting is that many of the assassination conspiracies were hatched by soldiers of the Pakistani armed forces, and members of terrorist groups given patronage by the Pakistani military.
In April 2002, a remote-controlled car bomb had been placed on Musharraf's route. The detonator failed and an attack on the President was averted.
On 14 December 2003, a bomb exploded near Musharraf's farmhouse in Islamabad. The blast occurred 20-25 minutes after Musharraf's car passed the exact spot. The bomb had been placed in a drainage pipe next to the footpath, and caused a big crater when it went off.
Just 11 days later, Musharraf was targeted by two suicide bombers. Trucks laden with bombs were driven into the President's convoy. Over 15 people died, over 40 were injured, but Musharraf survived.
Four years later, on 6 July 2007, shots were fired at Musharraf's plane during take-off. The aircraft was taking off from a military airfield in Rawalpindi. The plane eventually safely arrived in Turbat town.
In October 2003, a court convicted 3 terrorists for the 2002 assassination plot. In September 2006, Pakistan’s Supreme Court upheld death sentences handed down to 12 men, including soldiers and civilians, convicted of taking part in two assassination plots.
In 2009, a military court in Pakistan convicted two soldiers for being involved in a murder conspiracy against Musharraf. In 2004, the President had reportedly blamed low-ranking Army and Air Force officers for allying with an Al Qaeda operative to take his life.

Pervez Musharraf death: In 2004, the Pakistan President had reportedly blamed low-ranking Army and Air Force officers for allying with an Al Qaeda operative to take his life.

The Kargil war - in Pervez Musharraf's imagination, it was an opportunity to go down as one of the greatest in history books. In reality, it was a moment of utter humiliation for the entire nation of Pakistan.
The Kargil conflict was a 60-day war which took place between May and July 1999. It occurred in the Kargil-Drass sector of Jammu and Kashmir.
The war began with infiltration from the Pakistan-controlled side. Islamabad initially blamed terrorists, but subsequently, it was proven that Pakistan army soldiers were part of the operation.
Over 500 Indian soldiers were killed in the action, but Indian eventually claimed victory on July 26, 1999. The day is celebrated as Vijay Diwas every year.
As Pakistan army chief, Pervez Musharraf had masterminded the Kargil operation. Musharraf had reportedly presented a similar plan to Benazir Bhutto when she was Prime Minister, but she had rejected it.
Eventually, Musharraf launched the operation when Nawaz Sharif was in power. The Pakistani general wanted to catch India off-guard, and quickly capture territory.
Musharraf thought that once the war started, the West would be forced intervene to prevent a wider conflict between two nuclear powers, and a ceasefire would cement Pakistan's territorial gains.
However, the plan back-fired as India responded fiercely, and decimated Pakistani forces. Years later, one of Nawaz Sharif's close aides claimed that Musharraf had launched the war to derail India-Pakistan talks.

Pervez Musharraf was born on August 11, 1943 in undivided India's Delhi. After Partition in 1947, his family moved to Pakistan. The son of a career diplomat, he chose a life in the armed forces. Musharraf fought in the 1965 and 1971 India-Pakistan wars.
After serving in the artillery, the infantry, and commando units, and teaching stints at the Staff College in Quetta and the War Wing of the National Defence College, Musharraf finally reached the top office. He was appointed chief of army staff in October 1998 by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.
A year later, Musharraf overthrew Sharif, and snatched power in a bloodless coup. In 2001, he declared himself the President of Pakistan. A year later, elections were held but after disqualification of Sharif, and Benazir Bhutto.
In 2007, Musharraf's re-election bid led to a clash with the judiciary. The dictator sacked the Chief Justice, imposed emergency, and arrested Opposition leaders.
However, in the 2008 elections, Musharraf's party fared badly. Subsequently, the Sharif-Zardari coalition pursued Musharraf's impeachment leading to his resignation as President in August 2008.
Musharraf tried to make a political comeback in 2013, but was arrested under various cases. Three years later, the former dictator went to Dubai for medical treatment. In 2018, it came to light that Musharraf was suffering from amyloidosis.
In 2019, he was sentenced to death after being found guilty of high treason for subverting the Constitution in 2007. Musharraf's execution was considered unlikely as he was not expected to return to Pakistan from Dubai. A year later, the conviction and death sentence were overturned.
On June 10, Musharraf's family tweeted from his account that had been hospitalised for 3 weeks due to a complication of his ailment. The statement said that Musharraf was going through a difficult stage where recovery was not possible and his organs were malfunctioning.

As rumours swirl of China's President Xi Jinping being overthrown in a silent military coup, what do scenes from national capital Beijing show?
For a few days now, social media has been buzzing with speculation of three major developments in China. These included claims that the Chinese President had been dethroned by the military, and removed as head of the armed forces - the People's Liberation Army, or PLA. There were also claims that Xi Jinping may have been placed under house arrest after the change of guard.
There are three main sparks behind these coup rumours. First, that Xi Jinping has not been seen in public since the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit in Uzbekistan in mid-September. Then, some social media users posted unverified videos, calling them proof of heavy military movement towards Beijing. Additionally, there were claims that more than half the flights in China had been grounded amid the political upheaval.

But what is the situation in China's capital city? Do scenes at public places betray the truth of a secret coup? Here's what journalist Georg Fahrion, working with German organisation Der Spiegel, found.
He first visited the Xinhua Gate, the main entrance to Zhongnanhai compound which houses the residences and offices of top leaders including Xi Jinping. Amid claims of Xi's house arrest, military personnel were conspicuous by their absence.
Next Fahrion showed the situation at an important public spot - the Tiananmen Square. It is a large public square in the middle of Beijing and houses government museums, mausoleums, and meeting halls. Here too, there were many civilians, but no military.
Next was the headquarters of State Grid, which manages electricity supply in Beijing. Normal thoroughfare was seen outside the building. Occupying the second ring road near the offices of the Chinese foreign ministry was civilian traffic, and no military convoys. At Beijing's central railway station, the journalist found only civilian passengers milling about.
As the coup rumours gained prominence, experts on Chinese affairs were quick to shoot them down.
They reasoned that Xi Jinping's absence was probably due to quarantine after foreign travel. Also, the cancellation of flights has been common amid strict Covid restrictions in the country. Experts also said that a military coup in China is unlikely as the PLA remains under the firm control of politicians. Another reason that experts called the coup rumours unfounded was Xi Jinping's continuous crackdown on his opponents and dissidents, especially as he is close to securing an unprecedented third term in office.
Rumours of a coup emerged just days after two former Chinese ministers were sentenced to death for being part of a political clique - a hint that they were actually critics of Jinping. A few other officials were recently imprisoned on corruption charges.
The crackdown has been seen as Xi Jinping's plan to eliminate his critics in the Chinese Communist Party, as he tries to strengthen his hold and become equal to, if not greater than, past leaders like Mao Zedong.

A court in military-ruled Myanmar convicted the country's ousted leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, on more corruption charges on Monday and sentenced her to an additional six years in prison, a legal official said.
The trial was held behind closed doors, with no access for media or the public, and her lawyers were forbidden by a gag order from revealing information about the proceedings.
In the four corruption cases decided Monday, Suu Kyi was alleged to have abused her position to rent public land at below market prices and to have built a residence with donations meant for charitable purposes. She received sentences of three years for each of the four counts, but the sentences for three of them will be served concurrently, giving her a total of six more years in prison.
She denied all the charges, and her lawyers are expected to appeal.
She already had been sentenced to 11 years in prison on sedition, corruption and other charges at earlier trials after the military ousted her elected government and detained her in February 2021.
Analysts say the numerous charges against her and her allies are an attempt to legitimize the military's seizure of power while eliminating her from politics before the military holds an election it has promised for next year.

As the Ukraine-Russia war stretches on, a top Ukrainian spy has made a big claim. Amid speculation about Russian President Vladimir Putin's health, Ukraine's Major General Kyrylo Budanov has claimed that Putin is suffering from various diseases, including cancer.
Budanov is the chief of Ukraine's military intelligence. He told Sky News, "We can confirm that (President Vladimir) Putin is in very bad psychological and physical condition. He is very sick. He has various illnesses at the same time, one of which is cancer."
The claim regarding Putin's health comes amid various similar reports, ranging from scheduled surgery, to videos purportedly showing Parkinson's symptoms.
The other big statement Budanov made is that Putin is staring at a coup which "cannot be stopped". He said, "The turning point (of the war) will be in the second part of August. Most of the active combat actions will have finished by the end of this year. This will lead to a change of leadership of the Russian Federation. This process has already been launched, and they are moving that way. Yes, they are moving in this way and it is impossible to stop it."
Budanov also denigrated the Russian army as a force of untrained "horde of people with weapons". He said, "We have been saying for a long time that the Russian army, which Russia is trying to promote in various training videos, does not exist. It is a horde of people with weapons. That's all they've got."

A comment by US President Joe Biden has sparked speculation that America might be planning to topple Russian President Vladimir Putin's regime as the Ukraine war stretches on. While visiting Poland on March 26, Biden had said, "For God's sake, Putin cannot remain in power".
Even though the US government has clarified that it has no "strategy" for regime changes in other countries, past instances of the Central Intelligence Agency, or CIA's interference abroad continue to fuel rumours.
Here are some instances of USA's involvement in overthrowal of governments in other countries, as per a Foreign Policy report.
The dethroning of Iran's Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh in 1953 is reportedly the first such incident which the CIA officially admitted. Mossadegh was targeted after nationalising the Iranian oil industry which was being run by British companies, as per reports. He was ousted and put under house arrest for the rest of his life.
In 1954, the CIA was reportedly part of the ouster of Guatemalan President Jacobo Arbenz. The coup occurred after he planned land reforms which risked the holdings of the US-owned United Fruit Company. The CIA reportedly helped rebels and paramilitary personnel, while the US Navy blockaded the Guatemalan coast.
In 1960, the US reportedly targeted Congo Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba. Washington supported Belgium's military action in the country to protect business interests. Lumumba was forced out of office, but tried to militarily fight the Belgians, and sought help from the Soviet Union. The CIA reportedly tried to encourage Congolese elements to assassinate Lumumba. The former PM was reportedly caught in late 1960 and subsequently killed.
In 1961, the CIA reportedly helped dissidents in the Dominican Republic assassinate dictator Rafael Trujillo. The autocrat reportedly orchestrated the genocide of thousands of Haitians in the Dominican Republic. He also tried to have the President of Venezuela killed.
Vietnam, one of the most infamous spots of US intervention, was the location of the next coup. In 1963, in South Vietnam, the US reportedly became part of a plot against ruler Ngo Dinh Diem. South Vietnamese generals took America's help in assassinating Diem.
In 1964, the US supported a coup against Brazil's President Joao Goulart, considering him a threat for his proximity to Communist countries. America helped Brazilian army chief Humberto Castello Branco stage a coup. The CIA also provided weapons of non-US origin, and other items to those supporting the Army.
In 1973, Chilean President Salvador Allende's government was overthrown by General Augusto Pinochet. Since Allende's election in 1970, the socialist leader had reportedly been opposed by the US, with the CIA working with multiple groups planning a coup against him.

'Down with the tyrant': Thai protesters kick off weekend of rallies

Pro-democracy protesters took to the streets of Bangkok on Saturday as a rally kicked off calling for PM Prayut Chan-O-Cha to step down and demanding reforms to the monarchy. Protesters chanting "Down with dictatorship, long live democracy!" and "Prayut get out!" gathered in front of Bangkok's Thammasat University, demanding to be let in and eventually forced the locked gates open. The demonstration was later expected to move on to the historic Sanam Luang field in front of the royal palace, where protesters plan to spend the night. Thailand has seen near-daily gatherings of youth-led groups since mid-July demanding the resignation of Prayut, the former army chief behind the 2014 coup, and a complete overhaul of his administration.
