India Says Courts Will Decide Sheikh Hasina's Extradition Amid Talks with BangladeshPreviousNext

India and Bangladesh are engaged in diplomatic discussions over the extradition of ousted Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Indian officials emphasize that any extradition decision will be made by Indian courts based on legal criteria, not political considerations. Bangladesh's government has submitted a formal request under the 2013 extradition treaty, while Hasina has indicated plans to return to Bangladesh in December. Talks aim to move beyond a maximalist stance amid ongoing legal and diplomatic processes.
