The minister told a conference in Dhaka on Saturday that 495 nationals of different countries are now in Bangladesh jails. Among the foreign prisoners, 57 have been convicted in different cases, Kamal said. But their home countries are not showing any interest to receive them. The minister was speaking as the chief guest at a regional conference titled "Combating Trafficking: Repatriation of Victims of Trafficking" organized by the National Human Rights Commission at a Dhaka hotel on Saturday. “Almost 80% of the people who are trafficked through maritime routes are Rohingya refugees,” the minister said.
