DHAKA (Web Desk) - Following Shakib Al Hasan, another former captain of Bangladesh cricket has been booked in a legal case.

According to Bangladeshi media, former captain Mashrafe Mortaza has been named in a case involving attacks on students.


A total of 90 individuals have been accused, including Mortaza, in connection with recent protests that involved assaults on students.

The case was filed by Sheikh Mustafa al-Mujahid al-Rahman at the Narail Sadar Police Station, with Mortaza’s father also named in the allegations.

Shakib Al Hasan also faced a murder charge in Bangladesh. He did not return to Bangladesh from Pakistan but traveled to England via Dubai.
