Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has fled to India following massive unrest and violent protests over the controversial quota system. Landing at Hindon airbase near Delhi, Hasina plans to seek asylum in the UK, where her sister resides. However, UK asylum rules, which require refugees to claim asylum in the first safe country they reach, present a significant roadblock. Meanwhile, Hasina's son, Sajeeb Wazed Joy, confirmed that she is done with Bangladeshi politics and will now focus on spending time with her grandchildren.
