Dhaka: Bangladesh's anti-graft commission has filed cases against ousted leader Sheikh Hasina and her family, including a British government minister and a senior United Nations official, its chief said Monday.
Hasina, 77, fled a revolution in August 2024 to neighbouring India, where she has defied extradition requests from Bangladesh to face charges including mass murder.
The cases are linked to an alleged large-scale land grab of lucrative plots in a suburb of the densely populated capital Dhaka.
"Sheikh Hasina, in collaboration with some officials, allocated plots for herself and her family members," Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) director general Akhter Hossain told reporters.
Hossain said those named in the case also include Hasina's niece, British anti-corruption minister Tulip Siddiq. She has insisted she has done nothing wrong.
