Chief Adviser's Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam on Sunday said the interim government has not yet received any letter from Tulip Siddiq, reportedly seeking a meeting with Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus during his official visit to the United Kingdom. 

"The government has not yet received any such letter," Alam told UNB when enquired about Tulip Siddiq's reported letter seeking audience with Muhammad Yunus.

"We cannot comment on something we have not seen," the Press Secretary added.

Yunus is scheduled to leave Dhaka for London on Monday evening as part of his four-day official visit to the United Kingdom.

"I haven't done anything wrong and I have nothing to hide. If you're serious about finding out the truth, let's talk," Tulip Siddiq wrote from her verified X handle, tagging the Chief Adviser and sharing a report run by The Guardian. 

Former City Minister of the UK Tulip Siddiq has written to Yunus as she wants meet him in London to clear up a "misunderstanding" after corruption allegations made by interim administration led her to resign from the UK government, according to a report run by The Guardian.

Siddiq, whose aunt deposed prime minister Sheikh Hasina was put on trial in absentia last week over crimes against humanity during her 15 years tenure, has been accused of benefitting from the former regime by the authorities in Bangladesh.
