Maruful's legal notice to BFF
Coach Maruful Hoque served a legal notice to the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) demanding his unpaid wages from the game's governing body.
The legal notice signed by advocate Mohammad Belayet Hossain stated that Maruful, who served as Bangladesh National team coach for two months before resigning in January last year, was yet to receive a part of the contracted amount worth Tk 45,000. The BFF hired him for a monthly salary of Tk 500,000 and paid only Tk 550,000 so far.
Maruful, now the head coach of Arambagh KS, also served another legal notice to the BFF, demanding that a fine of Tk 50,000, imposed on him by the disciplinary committee for violating the code of conduct during a Bangladesh Premier League game against Saif SC, be withdrawn. The notice stated that the article 50 of the disciplinary code used to punish Maruful for demanding an explanation from a foul-mouth fan after the game was 'misconstrued'.
“We have received legal notices from Maruful Hoque today [Thursday]. We will clear his unpaid wages within seven working days while our legal department will answer him under which articles and laws he was fined,” said BFF general secretary Abu Nayeem Shohag.
