British MP and former City Minister Tulip Siddiq, niece of former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, faces a corruption verdict in Bangladesh on December 1. She, along with Hasina, Sheikh Rehana, and 14 others, is accused of abusing power to obtain plots in the Purbachal New Town project. If convicted, Siddiq could face up to 10 years in prison, potentially jeopardizing her parliamentary position in the UK. She is also under investigation for alleged embezzlement of £4 billion from the Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant project, first reported by the Daily Mail. The controversy previously forced her to resign as City Minister. British lawyers have raised concerns about the transparency of the Bangladeshi trial, sending a letter to the Bangladesh High Commissioner. Siddiq, MP for Hampstead and Highgate, has also faced scrutiny over a London flat allegedly received as a gift from a pro-Awami League figure, though a UK inquiry found no ministerial rule breach.
