Bangladesh interim govt requests Interpol Red Notice for Sheikh Hasina

The interim Government of Bangladesh has requested Interpol to issue a Red Notice on Sheikh Hasina who fled India during the mass uprising. Inspector General of Bangladesh Police Baharul Alam disclosed the information at a high-level meeting with security chiefs, presided over by interim government head Muhammad Yunus, in Dhaka yesterday, the Chief Adviser’s Office said in a statement.

Baharul said police have set up 10 teams to monitor the murder cases filed over the atrocities and killings by Hasina’s security forces during July and August, reported

Yunus directed police to fast-track these cases and to make sure that no innocent people are harassed by these cases, the statement read. He also asked police and law-enforcing agencies to create a command centre to intensively monitor the law and order situation in the country.

Yunus ordered the security chiefs to protect the human rights of every citizen and take special measures to thwart any attacks on religious or ethnic minorities.
