Team India’s pacer Mohammed Shami has been booked for domestic violence on the basis of complaint filed by his wife Hasin Jahan in Kolkata. His Hasin Jahan alleged that Shami, 27, and members of his family had even tried to kill her.
Seven charges have been levelled against the India fast bowler, one of them being attempt to murder by “food poisoning and physical attack”. A rape charge has also been levelled against Shami’s elder brother.
Shami has been charged under sections 498 A, 323, 307, 376, 506, 328, 34 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). The Indian cricketer’s wife Hasin Jahan posted screenshots on her Facebook account of Shami’s alleged WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger conversations with multiple women.
Shami on Wednesday also found himself out of the Board of Control for Cricket in India’s (BCCI) 26-member annual contracts system, which saw the addition of a new category.
