Hasina Sentenced to Death, Bangladesh Demands Extradition; India in Diplomatic Tight Spot
This special report covers the political and diplomatic fallout from the death sentence handed to Bangladesh's ousted former Prime Minister, Sheikh Hasina, by the country's International Crimes Tribunal for crimes against humanity. The programme examines the extradition demand made by the interim government of Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus and the complex position it creates for India, where Hasina has been in exile since August 2024. India's Ministry of External Affairs stated, 'As a close neighbour, India remains committed to the best interests of the people of Bangladesh, including in peace, democracy, inclusion and stability in that country'. The discussion, featuring India Today's Foreign Affairs Editor Geeta Moana and journalist Ahmed Mabroor from Dhaka, explores the caveats in the India-Bangladesh extradition treaty, the reportedly calm situation on the ground in Dhaka, and the potential diplomatic paths forward for New Delhi.
