Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) in charge of cricket operations Shahriar Nafees has said that Shakib Al Hasan won't be "harassed unfairly" when he returns Bangladesh for the first time since the fall of the Awami League government of which he was a part of.
One of the most decorated all-rounders in Bangladesh's history, Shakib, was among 147 people named in a murder case in Dhaka last month.
The 38-year-old became a member of the parliament in January this year. On August 5, Sheikh Hasina resigned as the prime minister of Bangladesh and fled the country following the violent protests in the country led by students.
At that time, Shakib was playing in the Global T20 League in Canada. Following the conclusion of the tournament, he travelled to Pakistan for the two-match Test series.
