Sudhir, who travels the world, said he was "pelted by stones" and his "auto-rickshaw was attacked" in Dhaka. He said security officials came to his rescue when the unrelenting mob chased him.
Bangladesh have provided the MS Dhoni and team with maximum security and even banned terror outfits with anti-Indian sentiments.
