Cricketer Nasir Hossain’s wife Tamima Tammi has said that she divorced her previous husband Rakib.

She made the claim at a press conference with her new husband cricketer Nasir on Wednesday afternoon.

Tamima said, “I applied for divorce in the year of 2016 and that was approved in 2017.  The divorce was done following a legal procedure. So, people might have understood what is now being happened in this regard.” 

 “Using a fake identification on Facebook, fabricated news is being given. But in fact we have no active Facebook ID.  Nasir uses a Facebook page. If it needs to inform people, we will notify people through the page. Please, refrain from sharing anything after listening something by other people,” she said.     

At the last stage of the press briefing, Nasir’s lawyer showed the divorce certificate of Tamima to the journalists. 

Nasir tied the knot with Tamima on February 14. Following their marriage reception programme, an allegation was raised that Tamima married Nasir without divorcing her former husband.

Meanwhile, Rakib Hasan, who is reportedly the husband of Tamima, filed a case with the court of Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Mohammad Jasim on Wednesday morning.
