A Bangladeshi court has issued a new arrest warrant against former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, her daughter Saima Wajed Putul, and 17 others in a corruption case.
The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) accused them of fraudulently acquiring a residential plot. The Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Judge accepted the charge sheet and ordered their arrest.
The court also asked the ACC to submit its investigation report by May 4. The case involves state-run RAJUK’s leased land in the Purbachal area near Dhaka.
