Description

Bangladesh has formally asked India to extradite Sheikh Hasina, the former prime minister ousted last year, after student protests in which about 14-hundred people were killed. A tribunal in Dhaka has sentenced her to death, but she can't appeal unless she returns to Bangladesh, or is arrested within 30 days - and India has given no sign it will hand her over.

Guest: David Bergman, investigative journalist and long-term Bangladesh watcher

Producer: Anne Barker
