Shakib Al Hasan Apologises For Silence During Bangladesh Protests

By AFP News October 10, 2024 • 13:12 PM View: 441

Retiring Bangladesh cricketer Shakib Al Hasan has apologised for remaining silent during a student-led revolution but defended his contentious decision to serve the autocratic regime it toppled.

Shakib, 37, is among dozens of figures from ousted premier Sheikh Hasina's party facing murder investigations for a deadly police crackdown on protesters during the summer uprising.
