Bangladesh parliament to debate deals with India

Dhaka:
Bangladesh parliament will discuss three deals with India pertaining
to exchange of prisoners, combating international terrorism, and
mutual help in criminal justice, signed during Prime Minister Sheikh
Hasina’s January visit to New Delhi.
The government has conceded a long-pending demand of the opposition
that has alleged a “sell-out” to India. But the opposition reacted
Sunday by saying that it did not believe a discussion would take
place or serve any purpose.
The three agreements with India envisage joint cooperation on
criminal justice issues, that was already underway.
The second concerns mutual legal assistance on criminal matters, and
the transfer of sentenced persons between the two countries and a
third deals with combating international terrorism, organised crime
and illicit drug trafficking.
Ruling Awami League’s chief whip in parliament Abdus Shahid
announced the government’s decision at a meeting organised by the
Diplomatic Correspondents Association of Bangladesh (DCAB) and five
NGOs relating to the upcoming SAARC summit in Bhutan.
Main Opposition chief whip Zainul Abdin Farroque told bdnews24.com
newspaper website: “You cannot believe what the Awami League says.
The treasury bench has several times broken its promises.”
The BNP and its ally Jamaat-e-Islami have claimed that the
agreements only secured Indian interests in helping New Delhi deal
with its own separatist movements.
The government has rejected the claim.
Opposition leader Khaleda Zia Sunday told a party rally in Khulna in
southwestern region that Hasina had failed to guard Bangladesh’s
interests while talking to the Indian leadership.
Hasina had not protested the “killings” of Bangladeshi nationals by
the Border Security Force (BSF), the Indian border guard, Zia
alleged.
The issue has figured repeatedly in the bilateral talks at different
levels and India has agreed to review the actions of its border
guards who say they fire in self defence while detecting illegal,
night-time movement of people found engaged in smuggling of goods,
cattle, arms and drugs.
Bangladesh shares a 4,300-km border with India.
“During her visit to India, the prime minister did not protest the
incidents on borders when the Indian border guards were killing
Bangladeshis and looting properties getting into Bangladesh
territory,” Star Online quoted Khaleda Zuia as saying.
Zia also alleged that the mutiny in February last year by troopers
of the country’s border guard, Bangladesh Rifles (BDR) was “a
premeditated conspiracy to turn Bangladesh borders vulnerable”.
Hasina alleged in parliament last year that Zia was found
“travelling in a car with curtains” during the February 25-26 mutiny
that began at the BDR headquarters and spread to other units.
Seventy-one persons, including 57 Bangladesh Army officers on
deputation to the BDR were killed.
Fifty eight troopers were awarded jail sentences by a special court
Sunday, in addition to 79 convicted earlier for being part of the
mutiny.
