Dhaka: A Dhaka court has issued an arrest warrant against Tulip Siddiq, the niece of ousted former prime minister Sheikh Hasina, and Sardar Mosharraf Hossain, a former assistant legal adviser of Rajdhani Unnayan Kartripakkha. The warrant is in connection with a case related to the alleged illegal acquisition of a flat from a private developer in Gulshan-2.
According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, Judge Md Sabbir Faiz of the Dhaka Metropolitan Senior Special Court sanctioned the arrest after accepting a charge sheet filed by the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).

The charge sheet against Tulip Siddiq and Sardar Mosharraf Hossain was filed by the ACC on December 11, 2025.
