Bangladesh Seeks Extradition of Former PM Hasina
News summary

Former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina faces multiple murder charges and is now also accused of crimes against humanity and genocide, with these cases arising from the deaths during violent protests against her government. Hasina resigned and fled to India on August 5, and the cases have reportedly been encouraged by her political adversaries, the BNP, and filed by private individuals and local police. The International Crimes Tribunal, which Hasina established in 2010, is investigating her for mass murder charges linked to the recent unrest. The interim government, led by Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus, continues to press more charges, exacerbating Hasina's legal troubles. Bangladeshi authorities are considering asking India to extradite Hasina to face these charges.
