A mass trial where several Bangladeshis were sentenced to death, which was criticised for not meeting international fair trial standards. Foreign Nationals While there are approximately 10 million foreign nationals living and working in Bangladesh (5% of the population), foreign nationals are not often sentenced to death or executed. The only known foreign national currently on death row in Bangladesh is a British national, who was sentenced to death in 2018 for drug trafficking.
