Refusal to return Hasina violation of extradition treaty: Law Adviser

Law Adviser Asif Nazrul

Law Adviser Asif Nazrul has said that if India does not return Sheikh Hasina, it will be a violation of the extradition treaty between Bangladesh and India.

The law adviser said this while responding to a question of a journalist at a press conference at the Secretariat on Tuesday.

“We have written a letter for extradition. If India does not extradite Sheikh Hasina, it will be a clear violation of the extradition treaty between Bangladesh and India,” he said. 

In that case, he said, the ministry of foreign affairs will take necessary steps to address the matter within the international community.

The foreign ministry is also making efforts and a red alert has already been issued, he added.
