Shakib-ul-Hasan
Bangladesh’s star cricketer and Test team’s key player, Shakib-ul-Hasan, has left Karachi for Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), instead of returning to Bangladesh, raising questions and concerns back in his home country.
This development comes in the wake of a murder case registered against him in Bangladesh, adding a layer of controversy to his recent movements.
Following the conclusion of the Test series against Pakistan, Shakib-ul-Hasan, the former captain and senior player of the Bangladesh national cricket team, chose not to return to his hometown in Dhaka.
Instead, he departed Karachi on Wednesday, opting to fly to Dubai. The all-rounder, who has been a pivotal figure in the Bangladesh cricket team, separated from his team late last night and traveled alone on Flight E6-07 from Karachi to Dubai.
His decision to divert his travel plans has raised eyebrows, especially since he is accused of being involved in the killing of a young man during recent anti-government protests in Bangladesh.
The decision of Shakib-ul-Hasan to fly to Dubai rather than return directly to Bangladesh has sparked speculation about his motives and the current situation surrounding the murder case.
With the case looming over him, his unexpected detour has led to various theories about his intentions and the next steps he might take.
Meanwhile, the rest of the Bangladesh cricket team, along with the management staff, departed from Karachi Airport on two different flights headed to Dubai and Qatar.
The team had arrived in Karachi from Islamabad late at night with plans to return to Bangladesh. However, due to logistical arrangements, the team members and officials are traveling on separate routes. Some will reach Dhaka via Dubai, while others will transit through Doha, Qatar.
The entire situation has created a wave of uncertainty and concern among Bangladeshi fans and cricket enthusiasts. The allegations against Shakib-ul-Hasan, combined with his sudden departure to Dubai, have left many wondering about the next developments in this high-profile case.
While the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) and team management have yet to make an official statement regarding Shakib’s decision or the allegations against him, his absence from the direct return to Bangladesh hints at potential legal or strategic reasons that are not yet fully understood.
As the team returns home amidst this controversy, all eyes remain on Shakib-ul-Hasan and how he will navigate the turbulent waters of both his cricketing career and the serious accusations against him.
