The High Court has granted bail to Kazi Shahadat Hossain, a suspended national cricketer, in a case filed for torturing his domestic help.

The High Court bench of Justice M Enayetur Rahim and Justice Amir Hossain on Tuesday granted the bail till March 31 following a petition filed by Shahadat.

Shahadat’s surrender came two days after police arrested his wife Jesmine Jahan Nrittya at one of her relatives’ house at Malibagh in Dhaka in connection with the same case.

Meanwhile, Jesmine secured bail on December 1.
