Ruhul Kabir Rizvi, BNP Senior Joint Secretary General, alleged that India is supporting crimes and pampering killers by providing refuge to Sheikh Hasina, the ousted prime minister, reports UNB.
“Our neighboring country yesterday (Thursday) clearly said Sheikh Hasina is there. Their statement seems like they behaved like a Big Brother,” said Rizvi on Friday.
The veteran BNP politician described Sheikh Hasina as the greatest terrorist and murderer.
“Who could be a greater terrorist than one who can drink children’s blood? Sheltering her (Hasina) means supporting crime, injustice, and pampering murderers,” he said.
Stating Bangladesh has signed the extradition treaty with India, the BNP leader said the interim government can take steps to bring Hasina back home through diplomatic efforts.
“Such a matter can be resolved through diplomatic discussions for her extradition. If not, the top terrorists in Bangladesh will find opportunities to take shelter in India and other countries,” he said.
On the occasion of the Ziaur Rahman Foundation's silver jubilee, Rizvi, together with members of the organization, paid homage to BNP founder Ziaur Rahman by placing a wreath at his grave.
India’s External Affairs Ministry spokesman Randhir Jaiswal at a press briefing on Thursday said they have seen reports about the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) in Bangladesh issuing a warrant for the arrest of former prime minister Sheikh Hasina in connection with alleged crimes against humanity committed during the July-August uprising but declined to offer any comment.
