8. Bangladesh swears in new president ahead of election
• DHAKA: Mohammed Shahabuddin, a former judge and a ruling party official, was sworn in as the president of Bangladesh on April 24, 2023, just months before a general election.
• Shahabuddin, 73, was an anti-corruption commissioner and reportedly `fought in the country`s 1971 war of independence`, the presidential palace said. `He was sworn in as the 22nd president of the People`s Republic of Bangladesh today,` Shampad Barua, secretary of the president, said.
