Bangladeshi women police officers stand guard in front of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) office during a nationwide strike called by BNP in Dhaka, Bangladesh, Tuesday, March 5, 2013. In the past one week over 60 people died in Bangladesh in the mayhem over the death penalty given to Delwar Hossain Sayedee, a top leader of the country’s largest Islamic party, Jamaat-e-islami, for his role in the atrocities linked to Bangladesh’s 1971 independence war against Pakistan. <AP Photo/NEWSis/A.M.
