Bangladesh’s Shahadat Hossain and his wife face charges.
Hossain’s bail plea was rejected by the court.
In the aftermath of the episode, Hossain had earlier been suspended by the Bangladesh Cricket Board for an indefinite time period.
Hossain last played for Bangladesh in a Test match against Pakistan in May, when he twisted his right knee and was ruled out action for six months.
“Nritto Shahadat was arrested from her parents’ house”, inspector Shafiqur Rahman told Agence France-Presse (AFP).
“We pleaded that he is not guilty as he was not present on the day the girl was allegedly beaten”. “We said Shahadat is needed in the national team and he is a national hero”.
Shahadat and his wife went on the run for almost a month, but on Sunday police raided the cricketer’s in-laws’ house and arrested his wife.
“She got her complaints recorded as we saw injury marks on her body and then sent her to the One Stop Crisis Centre of Dhaka Medical College Hospital immediately”, he said.

The maid, Mahfuza Akter Happy, told police and local media in September that the couple beat her, while television footage showed her looking frail and thin with swollen black eyes.
