BBC in Dhaka: 'The trial may be over... anger very much remains'

The former prime minister of Bangladesh, Sheikh Hasina, has been sentenced to death for crimes against humanity.

A special tribunal in Dhaka found her guilty of ordering police to kill protesters during the student-led uprising that forced her from power last year.

From exile in India, Sheikh Hasina dismissed the judgement as biased and politically motivated.

The BBC's South Asia correspondent, Arunoday Mukharji, reports from the Bangladeshi capital, Dhaka.
