Bangladesh’s Foreign Affairs Adviser Md Touhid Hossain has confirmed that a diplomatic note is being prepared to request India to return Sheikh Hasina and Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal, both sentenced to death for crimes against humanity related to the 2024 mass uprising. Speaking to journalists at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Hossain stated that the letter has not yet been sent but may be dispatched soon through a note verbale. The ministry will not send copies of the verdict but will formally notify India of the sentences and request the transfer of the two convicts. Earlier, a similar request to India reportedly went unanswered, but officials now believe the situation has changed following the court’s verdict. Hossain emphasized that Bangladesh and India have an existing agreement that allows for such extradition requests, and the government intends to pursue the process officially.
