The trial of Narayanganj 7-murder case prime accused Nur Hossain must start as soon as possible after bringing him back to home.
The higher authorities of the police think that under the extradition treaty signed last year between Bangladesh and India, it is possible to hand over any wanted and absconding accused of both countries in any level of a case.
Meanwhile, State Minister for Home Asaduzzaman Khan has said that the procedure for bringing back Nur Hossain had already been started. But special cautionary measures are needed to be taken for avoiding any dilly-dally in the extradition process.
Any reluctant comment by the ruling party on the question of Nur Hossain's extradition is not expected. It may convey unnecessary message to the people.
While answering to queries of journalists after inaugurating a fruit exhibition programme at Khamarbari in Dhaka on Monday, Awami League general secretary Syed Ashraful Islam said that the government was not aware of Nur Hossain's arrest in India and that the government came to know about the issue from media reports.
But the news of Nur Hossain's arrest was published in different newspapers of Dhaka and Kolkata quoting the state minister for home.
After the arrest of Nur Hossain on Saturday and placing him on an eight-day remand in police custody for interrogation by a Barasat court on Sunday, the Monday's comment of Syed Ashraf actually indicates that whatever his government thinks, at least he is personally indifferent to understand the depth and importance of the issue.
The people became frustrated after Nur Hossain fled the country following the gruesome killings of seven people in Narayanganj. Many of the people were in doubt that the trial of the heinous killings might be hampered in absence of Nur Hossain.
As Nur Hossain involved in a dispute with his associates the employees of a restaurant caught them after chasing and finally handed over them to the police.
According to media reports, the room number 503 in a five-storied building at Baguiati of North 24 Pargana in West Bengal where Nur Hossain used to stay after fleeing from Bangladesh was rented by two of his associates two months ago.
The issue of hiring a room by showing the excuse of receiving treatment for kidney-related problems is proven to be significant.
We hope that India will hand over Nur Hossain to Bangladesh soon and help Bangladesh to unearth the mysteries behind the killings by providing their special knowledge and obtained information in this connection. The people of Bangladesh will welcome this effort.
After the Barasat court placed Nur Hossain on an eight-day remand in police custody, expectation could be mounted among many people that India has not been taken it as merely an issue of intrusion of three people into Indian territory.
It will not be enough to bring back Nur Hossain shortly; special initiatives should also be taken to bring him to justice. If government seceded in ensuring it, the people will greet it as an outcome of government's zero tolerance pledge towards terrorism. In this regard, the supports and efforts of Narendra Modi government will also be seen as a flourishing reflection of the India's promise to provide continuous aids against trans-border terrorism.
