“An image showing demonstrators sleeping on the bed of former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina after taking over her residence.”
What FACTLY found
This image is from the 2022 Sri Lanka protests, where demonstrators entered President Gotabaya Rajapaksa’s residence. There are reports indicating that protesters in Bangladesh have stormed former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s residence with reports of looting and vandalizing. Some reports even suggest that demonstrators posed on her bed. However, the photo in the claim is not from these incidents.
