Bangladesh's interim government, led by Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus, is seeking Interpol's assistance to issue red notices for former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and 11 others. Hasina fled to India on August 5 following a student-led uprising that ended her 15-year rule. She faces charges including crimes against humanity, genocide, and corruption, with over 60 complaints filed against her regime. The International Crimes Tribunal has issued arrest warrants for Hasina and her associates. However, as of December 2024, Interpol had not issued any red notices. This move may strain diplomatic relations with India, which has provided Hasina with refuge. The interim government emphasizes its commitment to restoring democracy and transparency in Bangladesh.
