The move came against the backdrop of growing calls in Bangladesh for her extradition, according to the report published on Wednesday. Hasina, 77, fled to India after stepping down in the face of a nationwide mass movement. Hasina’s visa was recently extended to facilitate her stay in the country, sources familiar with the situation said on condition of anonymity. “As far as former prime minister Sheikh Hasina is concerned, we don’t have an update on her plans. It is for her to take things forward,” ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal told a media briefing last year.
