Sheikh Hasina: Bangladesh formally asks India to extradite Sheikh Hasina after death sentence

Sheikh Hasina: Bangladesh’s interim government has formally sent a third extradition request to India, demanding the return of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina following her death sentence by the International Crimes Tribunal for crimes against humanity linked to a violent crackdown on protests. Hasina, currently in hiding in India since her government was toppled in 2024, has become a focal point in strained India-Bangladesh relations amid ongoing diplomatic pressure.
