British MP Tulip Siddiq Sentenced Two Years in Prison by Dhaka Court Over Land Graft | APT

A Dhaka court sentenced UK MP Tulip Siddiq in absentia to two years’ jail in a land-allocation corruption case linked to the Purbachal New Town project. Prosecutors said she influenced former prime minister Sheikh Hasina to illegally grant a plot to her family. The verdict also punishes Hasina and her sister. Siddiq, who denied the charges as “politically motivated,” faces uncertain legal consequences — especially as Bangladesh and the UK lack an extradition treaty.
