US revoked
Amid growing queries on visa status of ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and others, the United States has said the visa records are confidential under US law.
“Visa records are confidential under U.S. law; therefore, we do not discuss the details of individual visa cases,” a spokesperson at the US Embassy in Dhaka told reporters on Tuesday following multiple queries.
Many journalists reached out to the US officials reportedly to confirm the United States has revoked Sheikh Hasina, her sister, the former government ministers, advisors and officials U.S. visas.
