Bangladesh has issued an arrest warrant for British MP Tulip Siddiq, niece of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, over allegations she illegally received a large plot of land in Dhaka.
The warrant stems from an investigation by the country's Anti-Corruption Commission, which is probing alleged corruption linked to Hasina's administration. Siddiq, a former UK Labour minister, has denied any wrongdoing and called the allegations politically motivated. She claims the move is part of a smear campaign aimed at discrediting her due to her family ties.
The case has sparked international attention due to Siddiq's political role in the UK and her familial connection to Bangladesh's former leadership.
