Jatiya Party chairman GM Quader has said Hasina should be extradited from India and tried in a Bangladeshi court for all the crimes committed by her and her regime, reports BSS.
Quader was Leader of the Opposition in the last Jatiya Sangsad, which was dissolved on August 6, a day after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned and fled the country following deadly protests against her government over a controversial quota system in jobs.
In an interview with India's PTI news agency, the former Bangladeshi cabinet minister said while people in both countries want good relations, it's important to stop acting as if one country was the 'supreme lord' and instead treat each other as equal partners.
Reflecting on the 'India out' campaign in Bangladesh, Quader stated that the 'animosity is not against India but against its policy of unquestionable support for one specific political party (Awami League) and its leader (Sheikh Hasina)" despite several allegations of misrule and ushering in a dictatorial regime in the country, the 76-year-old leader said.
