‘Plot to kill Sheikh Hasina in farcical trial’: Awami League on extradition move

Hindustan Times  

NEW DELHI: The Awami League on Thursday denounced the request made by Bangladesh’s interim government to India for extraditing former premier Sheikh Hasina and alleged that it was part of a conspiracy to kill her “in a farcical trial”. The Awami League’s statement said the party was deeply concerned that the “unconstitutional and illegal so-called interim government, which has seized power illegally, is involved in one conspiracy after another to kill” Hasina. The Awami League alleged that Nahid Islam, the de facto information and broadcasting minister, and other officials of the interim government have publicly stated that “they will hang Sheikh Hasina”. “The Bangladesh Awami League thinks that this extradition request of the so-called interim government.does not have any significance under the extradition treaty between the two countries because false cases for political reasons are not covered by this agreement,” the statement said.
