Shahadat Hossain is a Bangladeshi cricketer, who made his debut in 2005. Three weeks earlier he was accused of torturing his domestic helper. The domestic helper was a young girl whom he had illegally kept at work.
As soon as these accusations saw the light of day, Hossain went into hiding.
It was only on Monday that he decided to surrendered to the court. This step was taken only after his wife was also arrested and then denied bail. He has been jailed for now as the next step of action is being contemplated.
