Bangladesh has formally requested India to extradite former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and ex-Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal, both convicted of crimes against humanity during the July mass uprising. Foreign Affairs Adviser Md. Touhid Hossain confirmed on Sunday that a letter was sent from Bangladesh’s mission in New Delhi to India’s Ministry of External Affairs on Friday. The International Crimes Tribunal sentenced Hasina and Kamal to death on November 17 for their roles in the July killings. Dhaka emphasized that India, as a treaty partner, has a legal and moral obligation to return the convicted fugitives. Hasina fled to India on August 5 last year following a mass student and public uprising that toppled her government. Despite previous extradition requests, India has not responded. Bangladesh reiterated that sheltering convicted war criminals would be considered an unfriendly act and a disregard for justice.
