BRITISH Labour politician and former minister Tulip Siddiq, the niece of Sheikh Hasina, has accused Bangladeshi authorities of launching a "targeted and baseless" campaign against her and urged an immediate end to the "damaging allegations."

- JAYANTH JACOB @ New Delhi

Siddiq's legal representatives have called for an immediate halt to a series of "false and damaging" allegations made against the British Member of Parliament regarding financial irregularities linked to the Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant, which was built with Russian help.

In a letter to Bangladesh's Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC), Siddiq's lawyers from Stephenson Harwood reiterated her position that she had no involvement in the nuclear plant deal despite being photographed at a signing ceremony in the Kremlin in 2013 alongside then-Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
