UK minister linked to Hasina graft probe quits govt

Tulip Siddiq, the British minister for financial services, resigned amidst scrutiny over financial ties to her aunt, ex-Bangladeshi PM Sheikh Hasina, accused of corruption. Although cleared of breaching conduct codes, Siddiq stepped down to avoid distracting government work. She was linked to a major fraud investigation in Bangladesh involving infrastructure funds. Emma Reynolds has been appointed as her replacement.
