Lucknow: Hasin Jahan, estranged wife of cricketer Mohammed Shami, was taken into custody by police in Amroha in Uttar Pradesh after she reached her husband's house and created a ruckus. She was later released on bail.
Hasin Jahan reached her husband's house in Sahaspur Ali Nagar village late on Sunday night. When her in-laws asked her to leave, she locked herself and her child in a room.
The police were called. When the police failed to bring a truce between the warring parties, they took Hasin Jahan into custody.
"I have come to my husband's house and I have every right to stay here. My in-laws are misbehaving with me and the police is supporting them. They should have arrested them but they are taking me to the police station," said Jahan, who had accused Shami of domestic abuse and infidelity last year, ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Incidentally, Kolkata Police filed a chargesheet against Shami charging him under IPC section 498A (domestic abuse) but relieved him of other stringent charges including attempt to murder.
Shami is currently playing for Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in the 12th edition of the IPL and has also been included in the 15 man squad for the upcoming World Cup cricket tournament beginning on May 30.
