Former Bangladesh cricket captain Shakib Al Hasan's ancestral home in Magura was attacked on Wednesday evening, shortly after he participated in a media interaction featuring ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in New Delhi. Police reported that a group of unidentified individuals vandalized the residence, throwing bricks and other debris, along with attempts to set the home on fire using petrol bombs, although no injuries occurred. The incident heightened security concerns, prompting police to increase their presence around Shakib's property, according to Indiatimes and Reuters.

The assault occurred around 8:45 PM local time, resulting in damaged windows and reports of a fire on the upper floor. Shakib, who represented the Magura-1 constituency and has ties to the Awami League, has been staying abroad since the country’s political unrest over the past year. During the media interaction, Hasina claimed that the uprising against her government was a "meticulously designed" operation by organized groups, according to Indiatimes and Al Jazeera.

Despite the violence at his home, no claims of responsibility have been made public, and the motive remains unclear. Authorities continue to investigate the incident, with a focus on identifying the attackers and confirming reports about the use of petrol bombs, as highlighted by reports from Reuters and Al Jazeera.
