Bangladesh pacer Taskin Ahmed has finally spoken about the recent controversy where he was accused of assaulting a close friend. The Bangladesh pacer denied the allegations in a Facebook post, calling them "false, made-up, and misleading." He also requested people not to believe rumours or get involved in news meant to create drama.
The incident reportedly happened on the night of July 27, when Taskin was accused of physically hurting a childhood friend. However, Taskin says the situation has been blown out of proportion. “I humbly request everyone not to be misled by rumours,” Taskin wrote. “A lot is being said about an incident between me and my childhood friend. I feel it’s being exaggerated beyond what really happened.”

Taskin Says Matter Was Settled Privately
Taskin Ahmed said that the issue had already been discussed privately between him and his friend. He added that neither his family nor his friend wanted the matter to become public.
In his Facebook post, Taskin said, “It’s not something respectful for me, my family, or my friend. We’ve already spoken and cleared things up. This shouldn’t have escalated the way it has.”
He ended his message by strongly denying the claims. “All I want to say is this – the reality is different. The claims are false, made-up, and done with bad intent. I hope you stand by the truth, because truth never becomes a lie.”
Police Begin Investigation
The police have started an investigation after Taskin Ahmed was accused of physically attacking a longtime friend.
According to the accuser, Taskin called him around midnight on Sunday and then attacked him. Officer Sajjad Noman of Mirpur Police Station said the incident began as an argument and later turned into a fight that involved Taskin and other people.
“A friend of Taskin said there was an argument and then a fight. Other friends were also present. We are trying to find out what exactly happened,” said Sajjad Noman.
He added, “The incident didn’t happen in Mirpur, but the group left from Mirpur in a vehicle. The fight took place in the Asad Gate area, which comes under Mohammadpur Thana. We are investigating the case.”
