Awami League president and former prime minister Sheikh Hasina left the country and fled to India after resigning on August 5 due to the mass uprising of the students-public. There, she has already spent three weeks.

The Interim Government of Bangladesh, on the other hand, canceled the red (diplomat) passports of all cronies including Sheikh Hasina.

According to India’s visa policy, Bangladeshis holding diplomatic red passports can enter India without a visa and stay for a maximum of 45 days. Sheikh Hasina has spent 20 days in India till Saturday.

As such, Sheikh Hasina can stay in India “legally for only 25 days”. After that, the former prime minister will become invalid, reports Hindustan Times.

Hindustan Times reported that Sheikh Hasina had only a red passport when she fled the country. There was no ordinary green passport. In that case, due to the cancellation of the diplomatic passport, the risk of Sheikh Hasina being “extradited from India to Bangladesh” has increased

More than half a hundred cases have been filed against Sheikh Hasina so far, out of which, 42 are murder cases. The trial against the former prime minister will begin in these cases.

It is learned that Sheikh Hasina’s extradition will be included in the “extradition agreement” between Bangladesh and India in 2013. However, the agreement was last revised in 2016.

The revised agreement states that extraditing or repatriating the accused in politically motivated cases can be refused. However, the agreement expressly excludes the issue of murder cases from political considerations.

Besides, two countries can refuse to extradite the accused even if the case is “made with the intention of not doing justice”.
