An amicable settlement has been reached between Zinat Mosharraf, MP from Jatiya Party, and her husband Mosharraf Hossain, MP from the BNP, according to sources in the Dhaka City Corporation (DCC).

Zinat turned up at the office of the DCC Mayor Mohammad Hanif yesterday the last day of the three month time-limit for mutual reconciliation, following the issuance of a divorce notice from her husband.

The Mayor informed Zinat that her husband in a subsequent correspondence, intimated that he was willing to continue his conjugal life with her if she agreed.

The Mayor asked for her opinion about this and she agreed.

Mohammad Hanif, talking to The Daily Star last night, said he was happy over the reconciliation.
