Interim Government Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus has vowed to bring former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to justice, asserting that failure to do so would result in public unforgiveness.
“We'll bring her [Hasina] to justice. It has to happen; otherwise, people will not forgive us,” Yunus said during an interview with The National, a UAE state-owned English daily, on the sidelines of the World Government Summit in Dubai.
Yunus further revealed that the government has formally requested India to repatriate Sheikh Hasina. “We have sent a notice to India that Sheikh Hasina should be repatriated,” he said.
The cheif adviser said, "We have already started the legal process, so we are hoping that the legal process will continue and we'll bring her to justice. It has to happen, otherwise people will not forgive us."
The cheif adviser claimed that the interim government has amassed substantial evidence against the ousted Awami League administration, including documentation from the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights.
“This [evidence] is a testimonial to everything they have done. The UN has documented this, and we have stacks of evidence of what she, her government, and her immediate supporters have done to the country,” the chief adviser asserted.
