Verdict on ex-cricketer Shahadat, wife Nov 6
A Dhaka court yesterday fixed November 6 for delivering the verdict in a case filed against former national cricketer Shahadat Hossain and his wife Jesmine Jahan Nrittya on charges of torturing their domestic help.
On October 27, Shahadat and his wife pleaded not guilty and demanded justice after the court read out the charges to them.
Earlier, seven prosecution witnesses, including complainant and the victim of the case gave their statements before the court.
Of them, domestic help Mahfuza Akhtar Happy, in her August 25 statement, said Shahadat and his wife Nrittya did not torture her.
The domestic help, Happy, brought the allegation of torture against the couple on September 6 last year. Later, a case was filed against them with Mirpur Police Station.
Police on December 27, 2015 pressed charges against the two.
