Bangladeshi captain Najmul Hossain Shanto and veteran wicketkeeper-batsman Mushfiqur Rahim have come out in support of all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan in a case charging him with murder.
A case has been registered in Dhaka against the all-rounder who was a former Awami League Member of Parliament. At the same time, a egal notice has also been sent to the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB).
According to AFP, Bangladeshi captain Najmul Hossain Shanto said, “Shakib Al Hasan kept the country’s name high in the world of cricket for 17 years. He is a great asset to our country; the murder case against him is unexpected.”
On the other hand, Mushfiqur Rahim said that he does not support false allegations against Shakib Al Hasan.
A few days ago, Shakib was charged with the murder of an employee of a garment factory in Dhaka.
