KA woman has been able to hold on as head of government for as long as she has. The world's longest-serving prime minister has secured a fifth term in office with an iron fist. It was an election without opposition. Thousands of their political opponents are in prison in Bangladesh. Only a minority of those eligible cast their vote. The largest rival party boycotted the ballot.
To maintain the appearance of legitimate elections, allies of their Awami League (AL) ran as independent candidates. Most international election observers stayed away from the event from the outset.
