DHAKA: Bangladesh interim government’s Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus has said the Sheikh Hasina regime “destroyed everything”, as he pledged to hold general elections only after ushering in constitutional and judicial reforms, Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha reported on Wednesday citing an interview he gave to a Japanese newspaper.
The 84-year-old Nobel laureate, in an interview with Nikkei Asia, said, “We need comprehensive reforms in the economy, governance, bureaucracy and judiciary (before holding elections).”
Yunus also reiterated that India should extradite Hasina once her trial in the International Crimes Tribunal in Bangladesh concludes.
