The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has banned former national women’s team selector and manager Manjurul Islam following confirmation of a sexual harassment allegation. The decision was made during an online board meeting on Sunday, according to a BCB source cited by the daily Amar Desh. The board acted after reviewing an investigation report that found the allegation, raised by cricketer Jahanara Alam, to be true.
Manjurul Islam, who is currently working with women’s cricket in China, was accused of sexually harassing Jahanara Alam during his tenure with the Bangladesh national women’s team. The BCB-formed investigation committee verified the complaint and recommended disciplinary action. Based on that recommendation, the board decided to ban him from all forms of cricket activities in Bangladesh.
The BCB also stated that it would support Jahanara Alam if she chooses to pursue legal action against Manjurul Islam, reflecting the board’s commitment to addressing misconduct within the sport.
