News Desk, Bangladesh Global: Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed has said the government wants to bring back former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to Bangladesh through legal procedures and existing extradition mechanisms. Speaking at a press briefing on the country’s law and order situation at the Home Ministry’s conference room in Bangladesh Secretariat today, the minister said a formal request has already been sent through diplomatic channels for her return so that she can face legal proceedings in Bangladesh.

“We want Sheikh Hasina back through legal procedure. Through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and under the existing extradition treaty, a formal request has been made for her return so that she can face the cases filed in Bangladesh,” he said.

“India’s CAA or Assam’s NRC are their own legal and administrative matters concerning their citizens. There is no scope for Bangladesh to comment on those issues,” he replied to a question about India’s Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC).
