It is possible that Sajeeb Wazed Joy, the ICT Adviser to the Prime Minister of Bangladesh, could be sanctioned by the United States. There have been calls for sanctions against him, as he has been accused of human rights abuses and corruption. However, it is not clear whether the US government will actually impose sanctions on him.
In March 2023, the US House of Representatives passed a bill that would have imposed sanctions on Joy. The bill was never passed by the Senate, but it shows that there is some support for sanctions against him in the US.
The US government has not yet made a decision on whether to sanction Joy. However, if the US does decide to impose sanctions on him, it would be a significant development. It would send a message that the US is serious about human rights abuses and corruption in Bangladesh.
It is important to note that there is no guarantee that Joy will be sanctioned. The US government will need to weigh the evidence against him and decide whether sanctions are warranted. However, the calls for sanctions against him suggest that the possibility is real.
