India, Nov. 17 -- Former prime minister of Bangladesh, Sheikh Hasina, was on Monday found guilty on three counts of charges in crimes against humanity against student protesters in Dhaka last year that led to her ouster and escape to India.

She was found guilty on these three counts: orchestrating mass killings of protesters in Dhaka, ordering the killings and failing to take any measures to stop the punitive killings.

The tribunal judges said that there was evidence that Hasina herself gave orders to use drones, helicopters and lethal weapons against the protesters in Dhaka.
