Hasina should be extradited if she commited crime: Prof Yunus

Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus has said that ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina should be extradited if she committed crimes.

“Why shouldn't she? If she committed crimes, she should be extradited and brought to justice," he said, responding to a question, at the New York Times Climate Forward event here on Wednesday.

Sheikh Hasina resigned to the President and fled to India on August 5 last in the face of student-people revolution.

Prof Yunus is now in New York to attend the UN General Assembly.

Asked if he has any plans to run for office, responded in the negative, questioning, "Do I look like someone who would run?"
The chief adviser said he did not have a timeframe for holding the general elections in Bangladesh. Several commissions that were formed are expected to provide their reform recommendations in the coming months and after that, the date for polls will be fixed, he added.

About mob justice, Prof Yunus said foreign news outlets are publishing coloured news items, asking foreign reporters to visit Bangladesh and produce reports based on what they observed.

 Speaking at the event, he said the Paris Agreement, the global accord for limiting the effects of climate change, would not work as long as the world sticks with the current economic system.
 
That system is centered on maximising profits, creating wealth for a tiny group of people and generating massive waste, he said. "The economic system we have built is a key to the destruction of this planet. Humans had created a self-destructive civilisation," he said.


The 2006 Nobel laureate said no matter what changes were made to the agreement, it would not make a difference until the world's underlying systems were redesigned.

Developing countries like Bangladesh should not have to bear the burden of the climate damage done by rich countries, he said.
