[4] On 5 October, Islam filed a case against Sanjari with Uttara West Police Station under the Women and Children Repression Prevention Act. [5] She alleged him of torturing her - breaking her left arm, burnt her with cigarette butts and injuring several other parts. She also alleged him of asking dowry. Sanjari was arrested on the same day. [6] On 7 October, on a later deleted Facebook post, Islam alleged Sanjari of torturing and cheating, and also announced her intention of divorcing him. [5] [7] Sanjari was arrested on 6 October. [4] After getting bail, Sanjari had sent a divorce letter to Islam on 31 January 2018 and the divorce was completed on 22 May 2018. [4] After refusing to provide evidence for more than 1.5 years, an arrest warrant was issued against Islam on 23 June 2019.

On 2 June 2019, Sanjari suffered an assassination attempt with acid attack in front of his house. [10] [11] Around 8-10% of his body was burnt as a result. [4] Sanjari's father, SM Nasiruddin, filed a case against Islam and, her associate, Kim John Peter Haldar. [4] In February 2019, the court ordered the police to arrest Islam. [12] In December 2020, the police submitted a chargesheet against them. [13] In November 2021, a complaint was formed against them by the Acid Crime Suppression Tribunal. [14]

In September 2019, Sanjari filed a case against Islam and her father, Shahidul Islam, accusing them of keeping secret of her prior marriage. [15] In March 2020, Islam secured bail on this case. [15] [16]

In June 2023, court dismissed both of the cases of cyber crimes of Islam and Sanjari filed against each other in 2019. [17] [18]
