A Dhaka tribunal on Tuesday granted permanent bail to Bangladesh national team cricketer Al-Amin Hossain in a case filed by his wife over domestic violence.
Judge Begum Mafroza Parveen of Dhaka's Women and Children Repression Prevention Tribunal-8 granted the cricketer bail after he surrendered before the tribunal, reports Bangla Tribune.
According to the case statement, Al-Amin married Israt on December 26, 2012, and his wife subsequently gave birth to two sons.
Israt also claimed that Al-Amin did not provide her maintenance and educational expenses for the two sons for many days, it said.

On September 3, Al Amin sent a message to Israt that he will not provide her maintenance and divorced her.
On September 6, the High Court granted Al-Amin anticipatory bail for eight weeks in the case over the torture of his wife for dowry.
