Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib al Hasan has posted a video on social media, apologizing, after he received death threats for participating in a Kali Puja event in Kolkata on Sunday.
Soon after the picture of him at the program went viral, a man named Mohsin Talukdar from Talukdarpara area in Shahpur under Sylhet Sadar upazila in Bangladesh went live on Facebook threatening to kill him for hurting religious sentiments. The man could be seen sporting a sharp weapon and issuing threats to Shakib.
Soon after that video, the cricketer went live on YouTube and issued an apology. He even explained that he did not inaugurate the Kali puja and was only part of the event on another stage and was not part of the puja pandal.
He added that one of the organisers - Paresh Pal requested him to light a diya and the pictures went viral on social media.
In his Live, Shakib said, "The second issue I want to speak about is sensitive. I want to start by saying I am a proud Muslim and try to practice religion properly. There will be mistakes and that is part of life. I apologize if I have made a mistake and apologize if I have hurt your sentiment. When I was leaving, Paresh da requested me to light a diya. Media requested me to stand for a picture. I stood for two mins in the pandal. The Kali puja was inaugurated much earlier before I arrived by Firhad Hakim."
Later, Mohsin deleted the Facebook live video and issued another video on the same issue saying he shouldn't have issued any threats.
However, Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) on Tuesday arrested Mohsin Talukdar (25) who threatened to kill the batsman a Facebook live video on November 15. A team of Rab-9 arrested Mohsin Talukdar from Ronoshi village in Dakshin Sunamganj upazila today around 11:15 am.
