Visa issue does not exist once passport revoked: Govt

Apparently referring to deposed Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina reported visa extension, the interim government on Thursday said visa issue does not exist once passport is cancelled.
“I would give you general answer – if passport is cancelled, no visa issue remains there,” Spokesperson at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Mohammad Rafiqul Alam told reporters while responding to a question at a weekly briefing at the ministry.
He also said the passport cancellation issues are notified through Bangladesh Missions abroad so that the countries which have diplomatic relations with Bangladesh know about the cancellation.
“As we do not have additional information, we would not speculate,” Alam added.
