Bangladesh Says 'Situation Different Now', Expects India's Response On Hasina Extradition Request

The government is awaiting India's reply to its latest request to extradite Hasina: Foreign Affairs Adviser M Touhid Hossain

DHAKA: Bangladesh on Wednesday said India gave “no reply” to its earlier request seeking the extradition of deposed prime minister Sheikh Hasina, but Dhaka now expects a response from New Delhi as the “situation is different now” with the judicial process completed and the former premier convicted.

The interim government led by Muhammad Yunus last week had sent an "official letter" to India seeking the extradition of 78-year-old Hasina after a special tribunal sentenced her to death on November 17 for committing “crimes against humanity”.

Foreign Affairs Adviser M Touhid Hossain told reporters that the government is awaiting India's reply to its latest request to extradite Hasina.
