MP: Corruption verdict is ‘flawed and farcical’
Derby Telegraph
|December 02, 2025
FORMER City minister Tulip Siddiq says she refuses to be “distracted by the dirty politics of Bangladesh” after she was sentenced to two years in prison by a court in the country for corruption.
-
The Labour MP received the custodial sentence for corruption involving a Government land project, whilst her aunt, ousted prime minister Sheikh Hasina, was jailed for five years.
Following the verdict, Ms Siddiq said in a statement: “This whole process has been flawed and farcical from the beginning to the end.
“The outcome of this kangaroo court is as predictable as it is unjustified. I hope this so-called ‘verdict’ will be treated with the contempt it deserves. My focus has always been my constituents in Hampstead and Highgate and I refuse to be distracted by the dirty politics of Bangladesh”
