Kolkata: Indian cricketer Mohammed Shami’s wife Hasin Jahan met chief minister Mamata Banerjee at the Assembly on Friday afternoon, a day after the Board of Control for Cricket in India gave clean chit to the fast bowler of match-fixing charges levelled by his wife on him.

She went to the Assembly where Ms Banerjee gave her the appointment at around 2.30 pm to meet her in her chamber on the sidelines of the Rajya Sabha Elections. The meeting lasted for around 10 minutes during which Ms Jahan complained about her husband to the chief minister.

Ms Jahan later claimed that Ms Banerjee assured her to look into her complaint. She said, “I met the chief minister. I narrated to her whatever I had to say. She listened to me patiently. She also told me she would look into it. I am thankful to her. I am indebted to her.”

On March 19, Ms Jahan visited the chief minister’s residence at Harish Chatterjee Street in Kalighat after recording her confidential statement at the Alipore Court into her complaint of torture and rape by her husband and in-laws with the Kolkata Police. She however failed to meet her as Ms Banerjee was not home then.
