Bangladesh asked Malaysia for full details about 36 citizens arrested on terrorism charges. Foreign Affairs Adviser Md Touhid Hossain said his government wants complete information about what happened. Malaysian authorities grabbed the suspects and accused them of having ties to extremist groups. Officials from Dhaka are waiting for Malaysia to send back answers about the arrests. The government plans to check if the accusations against these people are true.
Hossain promised tough action if the suspects really did work with militant organizations. He said Bangladesh will make sure guilty people face punishment for their crimes. The adviser warned that this arrest could make it harder for other Bangladeshis to visit Malaysia. Bad incidents like this one often affect how countries give out travel permits. He believes taking the right steps can reduce any damage to future visa applications.
Malaysia's Home Minister announced the arrests on June 27 after police raids across the country. The detained Bangladeshis allegedly had direct connections to a dangerous terrorist group. Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus plans to visit Malaysia during August for official talks. Foreign ministry workers are trying to set exact dates for the important trip. The visit could help both countries discuss the arrest situation face to face.
