DHAKA -- Years of tension between the government of Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and the country's only Nobel laureate, Muhammad Yunus, are coming to a head, with the 83-year-old economist facing an ever-growing list of legal entanglements.
Yunus in the past two months has been slapped with a $5 million tax bill, a travel ban and a suspended jail sentence for allegedly violating labor laws, on top of well over a hundred pending cases against him.
