Bangladesh investigates former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina for corruption and seeks extradition from India

Bangladesh is investigating former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her family for corruption, including land misappropriation and embezzlement. This follows her departure to India amid protests. An extradition request has been sent to India, which has not yet responded. The Anti-Corruption Commission is looking into new allegations against Hasina and five family members, including acquiring land illegally. They are also under investigation for allegedly embezzling $5 billion from the Rooppur nuclear power project. Hasina's son has denied the corruption claims, calling them false. The investigation and extradition request could further complicate relations between Bangladesh and India, where Hasina has sought refuge.
