- Bangladesh’s Foreign Ministry said on Sunday that India should expedite the extradition of Sheikh Hasina and other fugitive criminals and hand over those accused of killing Shaheed Sharif Osman Hadi under the bilateral extradition treaty.
- Bangladesh and India have discussed a possible bilateral visit by Tarique Rahman since early June, with New Delhi having proposed August 21 as a possible date.
- Bangladesh said Hasina’s August 5 press interaction in New Delhi had disrupted the process, while India maintained that it had played no role and did not endorse her statements.
- After R&AW chief Parag Jain visited Dhaka on August 9, both sides have been seeking a diplomatic solution, but the current timeframe for the still-possible August 21 visit appears tight.
