據英國獨立電視台ITV報道，這是孟加拉政府首次就孟加拉裔「聖戰新娘」一事面對媒體鏡頭公開表態。

Bangladesh"s Foreign Minister has told ITV News that Shamima Begum is not his country"s problem.

孟加拉國外交部長告訴獨立電視台記者，沙米瑪·貝居姆不是孟加拉國的問題。

Abdul Momen said if she did go to Bangladesh after being stripped of her British citizenship she could be hanged for terrorism.

阿布·哈桑·默罕默德·阿里說，如果她在英國國籍被剝奪後前往孟加拉國，那麼就會以恐怖主義罪行被處以絞刑。

"We have nothing to do with Shamima Begum. She is not a Bangladeshi citizen," he said.

他說：「我們跟沙米瑪沒有任何關係，她不是孟加拉公民。」

"She never applied for Bangladesh citizenship. She was born in England and her mother is British."

「她從未申請過孟加拉國公民身份。她出生在英國，她的母親是英國人。」

"If anyone is found to be involved with terrorism, we have a simple rule, there will be capital punishment. And nothing else."

「我們的原則很簡單，任何人一旦與恐怖主義有牽連，就是死刑。沒的商量。」

"She will be put in prison and immediately, the rule is, she should be hanged."

「(來孟加拉的話)她會立即被關進監獄，按照法律被處以絞刑。」

阿里強調，孟加拉國對恐怖主義「零容忍」(zero tolerance)，並且是「消滅恐怖分子的典範」(model in eliminating all terrorists)。同時，孟加拉國也支持所有其他國家制止恐怖主義的蔓延。

對於沙米瑪變成無國籍人士，阿里表示遺憾，但重申這的確跟孟加拉國沒有任何關係。

今年2月19日，英國內政部宣布取消想要回英國的「聖戰新娘」沙米瑪的英國國籍。

在面臨這一決定可能會導致沙米瑪成為無國籍人士的指責時，內政部將鍋甩給了孟加拉國，稱她可以申請孟加拉籍，因為其父母是孟加拉人。

《衛報》在當天的報道中也指出：

Bangladeshi law includes a right of 「citizenship by descent」 to anyone who is born to a Bangladeshi parent.

孟加拉國法律規定，任何父母為孟加拉人的人都有「繼承公民身份」的權利。

"Once they reach the age of 21 that citizenship lapses unless they actively seek to retain."

「這一身份會在該公民年滿21歲，且未主動提出保留的情況下自動失效。」

這麼說來，19歲的沙米瑪申請孟加拉國籍是有理有據的。但是孟加拉外交國務部長沙赫里亞爾·阿拉姆(Shahriar Alam)隨即措辭強硬地回應道：沙米瑪非孟加拉公民，也從未向孟加拉申請過雙重國籍。

「The government of Bangladesh is deeply concerned that [Begum] has been erroneously identified as a holder of dual citizenship,」 Shahriar Alam, the state minister of foreign affairs, said in a statement issued to the Guardian, adding that his government had learned of Britain』s intention to cancel her citizenship rights from media reports.

孟加拉外交國務部長沙赫里亞爾·阿拉姆在發給《衛報》的一份聲明中表示：「孟加拉國政府對於沙米瑪被錯誤地認定為雙重國籍一事表示關切。」他補充說，(英政府事先並未與孟政府進行磋商)他們也是從媒體報道中才得知英國打算剝奪沙米瑪的公民身份。

「Bangladesh asserts that Ms Shamima Begum is not a Bangladeshi citizen. She is a British citizen by birth and never applied for dual nationality with Bangladesh … There is no question of her being allowed to enter into Bangladesh.」

「孟加拉國重申沙米瑪女士不是孟加拉國公民。她出生時是英國公民，從未向孟加拉國申請過雙重國籍...她能否被允許進入孟加拉國是個顯而易見的事。」

而沙米瑪本人也並無任何申請孟加拉國籍或是回到孟加拉國的意願。

"I wasn"t born in Bangladesh, I"ve never seen Bangladesh and I don"t even speak Bengali properly, so how can they claim I have Bangladeshi citizenship," she said.

她說：「我不是在孟加拉出生的，也從沒去過孟加拉，甚至連孟加拉語都不會說，他們怎麼能聲稱我是孟加拉公民呢？」
