Ousted Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina told her top military officers, "Shoot me and bury me here, in [official PM residence]," after they advised her to resign following student-led protests. Hasina's defence advisor TA Siddique even suggested firing at protestors to crush protests. Bangladesh Air Force chief opposed the move, saying, "[Siddique] has sunk you [Hasina] before, he'll sink you again."
