Bangladesh has summoned a senior Indian diplomat posted in Dhaka to protest the treatment of an adviser to Prime Minister Tarique Rahman, who was reportedly detained and questioned for several hours at New Delhi airport. The incident marks the latest diplomatic row between the neighbors, following a similar episode involving another aide, Zahed Ur Rahman, earlier this month. The adviser was stopped upon arrival and subjected to prolonged questioning by Indian authorities before being allowed to proceed. Bangladesh's foreign ministry lodged a formal protest, demanding an explanation and assurances against such treatment in the future.
