Event Summary

Bangladesh's National Central Bureau (NCB) has formally requested International — Interpol to issue a red notice against 12 individuals, including former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. This action follows arrest warrants issued by the Bangladesh — International Crimes Tribunal (Bangladesh) for Sheikh Hasina and others on charges of 'crimes against humanity and genocide'. Sheikh Hasina, 77, has been residing in India since August 2024, after fleeing Bangladesh due to widespread student-led protests that led to the collapse of her Bangladesh — Awami League government. The interim government, led by Muhammad Yunus, has stated its commitment to bringing Sheikh Hasina back to Bangladesh, even seeking international intervention if necessary. A red notice would assist in locating and provisionally arresting the individuals pending extradition.
