Dhaka: Bangladesh’s interim government said on Monday that it has sent a diplomatic note to India to send back deposed Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to Dhaka.

Hasina, 77, has been living in exile in India since August 5 when she fled the country amid the student-led protests that toppled her 16-year regime. Bangladesh-based International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) has issued arrest warrants for Hasina and several former Cabinet Ministers, advisers, and military and civil officials for “crimes against humanity and genocide”.

“We have sent a note verbale to the Indian government saying that Bangladesh wants her back here for the judicial process,” Foreign Affairs Adviser Touhid Hossain told reporters at his office.

Earlier in the morning, Home Advisor Jahangir Alam said his office has sent a letter to the Foreign Ministry to facilitate the ousted premier’s extradition from India. “We have sent a letter to the Foreign Ministry regarding her extradition. The process is currently underway,” he told reporters in response to a query. Alam said an extradition treaty between Dhaka and New Delhi already exists and Hasina could be brought back to Bangladesh under it.

Last month, in an address to the nation on the completion of 100 days of the interim government, Bangladesh’s Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus said it will seek the extradition of Hasina. “We must ensure justice in every killing… We will also ask India to send back fallen autocrat Sheikh Hasina,” he said.

In October, Law Adviser Asif Nazrul had reportedly said that Bangladesh would strongly protest if India tried to refuse Hasina’s extradition by citing any provision in the treaty.

In an interview in September, Yunus had said that Hasina making political remarks from India is an “unfriendly gesture”, asserting that she must remain silent to prevent discomfort to both countries until Dhaka requests her extradition. “If India wants to keep her until the time Bangladesh (government) wants her back, the condition would be that she has to keep quiet,” he said.
