Strategy, Politics & International Relations Forum • Re: Bangladesh News and Discussion

Article in Hindu today by law lecturers from Delhi and London makes a case for Hasina’s extradition to BD or trial virtually while in India, i.e. for Hasina subjecting herself to BD jurisdiction and trial. India is asked to facilitate this.

Even the possibility of indictment by the International Criminal Court is discussed.

Clearly, international forces with local elements are at work to make this a divisive issue between India and BD with such tutored and sponsored articles so that public discussion on this issue continues and is legitimised.

Article takes no account of the fact that there is no legitimate government in power in BD. It is the Islamist mob with military support that has taken over. The judiciary is not independent as it has succumbed to coercion by Islamist students.

The minorities are being persecuted.

Just putting a compromised stooge on top to deflect attention from the “ meticulously planned” ( Yunus’s words) regime overthrown by the Islamists doesn’t create legitimacy.

Only an elected government through free, fair and inclusive elections can initiate a legitimate legal process.

The current regime in BD seeks vengeance not justice.

The established legal dictum is that those who seek justice should come with clean hands.
