PK Halder arrested in India, staying with fake name Shibshankar Halder posing as Indian Citizen

That's absurd, I've never heard of a Bangladeshi trying to speak Kolkata accent. It makes no sense. He's definitely confusing the standard (shudho) speech with Kolkata dialect.
(for the nerds: the standard variety evolved from dialect of Nadia region, which currently stands divided between WB and BD).
This Nadia chick must have been hot or at least sounded hot.
 
How is India involved?


Now YOU don't start.


Great!

Look what you've started, @Jackdaws .

There will be an Amit Shah coming out of the woodwork everywhere.


ভেতো বাঙালি, যাবেটা কই ?


And you know all about Bengali accents.
He has property all across India. Only properties in Kolkata or West Bengal has been identified so far.

This recovery process of stolen money hypothetically speaking just can take forever as it goes through judicial process.
A favorite destination for these folks seems to be Toronto, Canada from a few cases I know

Here is a great video to compare Bangladeshi Shuddho Bangla (Adnan Faruque) with Kolkata Bangla (Mir Afsar and Indrajit Lahiri):

Enjoy the display of traditional Bangladeshi food if not for anything else. :lol:
I always enjoy Mir da's energy :D, the food looks awesome bydway. And the suddho bangla seems pretty identical to suddho bangla spoken in Tripura.
বেশ ভালো লাগলো দেখে. বাংলাদেশের ট্রিপ প্ল্যান করতেই হবে এখন. :D

একা গিয়ে অচেনা লোকদের মধ্যে থেকে সেই আনন্দটা থাকে না। আমার বিশেষ বন্ধু মারা যাওয়ার পর থেকে আর মন করে না সে দিকে যেতে।

অবশ্যই বলতে হবে যে জমায়াত -টা বেশ ভালো ছিল , আফসার এবং ইন্দ্রজিৎ বাবুদের আদনান মিয়ার সাথে সাক্ষাৎ খুব ভালো লাগলো দেখে। খাবার-টা একটু আতিশয্যে দিকে ঝুঁকে পড়েছিল, কিন্তু অতিথি কে খেতে ডেকে কিছু একটা প্রসংশনীয় তো করাই দরকার।
দুই বাংলা-এ খুব একটা তফাৎ তো বুঝলাম না।
 

Ya Allah - these houses would qualify for being demolish-ready in Bangladesh.

Barf-worthy designs and ugly colors to boot. Yuck!

It is going to be a cold day in hell before a substantial amount is ever recovered.

You just might get a symbolic amount as a token of Goodwill from India.

Repeat of Philippines situation. B'desh Gormint bigwigs will get paid off some money, otherwise fat chance of getting money back.....
 
Who the hell decided to make this abomination of a "fruit" to be a cultural symbol in this part of the world?
I find it’s smell and internal texture mindnumbing.

They belong to the same family as Rambutan etc. Part of what being native Asian ('South' or otherwise) is all about.

The smell and texture of both Jackfruit and Rambutan were supposed to attract carnivores for seed propagation, hence the odd meaty texture and putrid spoiled-meat eau-de-dead-animal smell......

Dada it is very common to present at least half a dozen items (more like 8-10 entrées) in front of a guest in Bangladesh for dinner.

It is more of a "Bangal" thing rather than "Ghoti" thing.

I have seen Kolkata Bangals behave the same way, some are my friends.

"Atishojjo" is a relative term, as state of mind, if you will.... :-)

Saving face in front of guests is preferable rather than "ek jhuri ninday".

লেখাটা পড়ে বড় হাঁসি পেলো। মনে পড়লো এখন না খেতে পেয়ে গরমে ভুগতে ভুগতে রান্না করবার ইচ্ছেটুকু হারিয়ে ফেলে খারাপ মেজাজে যে সব কথা লিখেছি সবই ফুটানি। আমাদের বাড়িতেও তো ঠিক সে ভাবে আটটা দশটা পদ না বসলে ভীষণ সংকোচ হতো।

In time we suffer and forget some things. But never lose hope.....one day better days will return. Temporary impediments.

The fact that you have "shonkoch" (shame) about serving the best for guests is an honored feeling and sentiment. :-)

It is not that guests expect it, it is rather you do that is heartening.

P K Halder could be tried and punished in India too: Momen

Foreign Minister A K Abdul Momen (File photo)

Foreign Affairs Minister Dr A K Abdul Momen has said that as a case against P K Halder who was arrested in India, is ongoing, he may face trial and punishment in India. If he is later returned to Bangladesh, he will be tried and punished here as well.

He told this to the reporters while speaking at a programme on Monday (May 16) afternoon.

Dr Momen said, “India has yet not informed Bangladesh over P K Halder officially. He will be brought back to the country per the existing rules of both countries. India can inform the matter to the Ministry of Home Affairs or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”

He further said, “P K Halder will definitely come under punishment. If India deports him after trial, the punishment may be executed here too.”
 
Bangladeshis! Be proud of your version of Bangla as US is of its version of English.

I believe most Bangladeshis are proud of their local accent. The stupidest thing are those kiddos from Gulshan Banani who speaks english while drinking latte somewhere in a rooftop cafe.

This recovery process of stolen money hypothetically speaking just can take forever as it goes through judicial process.

The money is gone. Probably some swiss bank accounts.

Btw. is there any good reason why Dubai is on FATF gray list but Switzerland is not!!!???
Those yodling and toblerone munching a holes gobble up all kinds of illegal money from all over the world.
