The government of Bangladesh has not yet received any official report from India over reappearance of BNP leader Salahuddin Ahmed in the country, said State Minister for Home Affairs Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal.
He made the disclosure while replying to the queries of journalists after a press conference at the secretariat on Tuesday afternoon.
Asked about the government's initiative in bringing back home the spokesperson of the BNP, the minister said: “We are yet to get any official report from India regarding him [Salauddin].
“We will deicide on the procedure to bring him back to the country once we get it.”
Earlier on Monday, the joint secretary general of the BNP, who disappeared from his Uttara residence two months back, wished to come back home.
while talking to newsmen when he was being taken to do a CT scan at a hospital in Shillong, the BNP leader said: “I want to go back home as I am neither a criminal nor an absconder.”
Salahuddin Ahmed also termed the criminal charges levelled against him as a political ploy by the Awami League led Bangladesh government.
About his sudden appearance in Meghalaya without any valid documents, Salahuddin claimed that he was kidnapped, tied up and blindfolded by his abductors who released him after a 12 to 14 hour journey, the news organisation quoted him.
Salahuddin’s wife Hasina Ahmed reached Shillong in the Indian state of Meghalaya the same day in order to meet her husband.
