To whom it may concern,

False accusations and complaints has been made against me, by my abusive spouse, that I have done
marriage of convenience and I have done immigration fraud. This is entirely a lie. He has been doing so
to hide his abusive nature. I still have expensive clothings left with him which I let him carry here when
he came back from Bangladesh. I have carried clothings and other objects for him too. If I planned to be
alone, in a country where I have no known person, except my husband, I wouldn’t have carried such
amount of luggage all by myself. His explicit angry words and name callings made me fearful to be with
him in the same flat.

I am currently residing at a shelter for victims of conjugal violence. Here, I am planning to stay, learn
French and rebuild my life. Mr. Haque is threatening me to be deported, or fined or put in jail claiming as
Canadian citizen he has rights to do so. Hence, he complained against me at Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre,
Immigration Fraud Department, Legal Aid and immigration lawyer. He has been harassing me saying if I
do not go back to him or Bangladesh, I will be fined 100000 dollars and will be put in jail for 5 yrs.

I have been married to Mr. Mohammad Haque since December 3, 2017.

Since we got married, my husband has been verbally and physically aggressive towards me. I married my
husband out of genuine feelings and according to the law of Bangladesh, even changed my religion to do
so. As our Bangladeshi culture is, women put up with such behavior and action of men, and marriages are
not easily broken off.
While I was in Bangladesh and he was in Canada, if I did not pick up my his calls due to work or
otherwise occupied, he would become abusive towards me, and would harass me by calling my work
place, and friends and family. He always promised me each time I complained about his aggressive and
controlling behaviour that he would change. Therefore, I tolerated such behavior as it is normal within my
community to tolerate such behaviour from a husband, with a hope that eventually when I would begin
living with him in Canada, he would change. As a result, I believed him and decided to come to Canada.
His words and behaviour is so unstable that it is not possible for me to feel safe with him again. He sends
me emails he is doing stress management to improve his behaviour pattern but the next day sends abusive
emails sleep or suicidal notes again. After some hours he emails me he wrote such notes to “test” me!

I flew to Canada from Bangladesh on a 26 hour flight, including an 8 hour layover in Guangzhou, China,
and a 14 hour flight from Guangzhou to Toronto. I was exhausted. My flight from Toronto to Montreal
was cancelled and rescheduled three times due to the snow storms in Toronto on December 1st 2019. Due
to these problems, I couldn’t call my husband right away and this made him very angry. He then called
the information desk at the airport and demanded to speak with me, and kept shouting at me using
derogatory words and threatening that he will not let me keep any contact with my family back in
Bangladesh. He was so loud and abusive that the man at the information desk blocked his number from
that phone. He then called my mother to shout at her. My sister was on phone with me at that time and I
heard everything that he was saying. His abuse and threats towards me and my family made me fearful. I
realised that if I went to him in Montreal I would be completely dependent on him and all alone with him
in the home. I was scared that he would physically hurt me then there would be no one to stop him and no
one would be able to help me.

This thought scared me. That is when I contacted a Canadian acquaintance of mine, who texted me the
information about shelter system in Canada. And I called Auberge Transition and arrived here the next
day, on December 2, 2019. After I came to the shelter, His behaviour has become increasingly abusive
by sending me repetitive e-mails (almost 250 emails) which are full of name callings and full of abusive
language. Since then, I have filed a report of harassment with the Montreal police and he is now under
investigation. (# 11-191207-008) I have saved all of his e-mails since I came here and if required, I can
provide those to you.

Given the above information, it is my humble request to not hold this false accusation against me and let
it affect my citizenship request in future.

Sincerely,
Shuvra Shuvo
