Wife files court case against cricketer Shami

Fast bowler Mohammed Shami's wife Hasin Jahan filed a domestic violence case against him and others in Kolkata's Alipore Court on Tuesday.

Jahan also sought maintenance from Shami.

Jahan had earlier filed a complaint against Shami at the Lalbazar police station following which he was charged under various non-bailable and bailable sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), including Section 498A which amounts to cruelty to a woman by her husband or his relatives.

Jahan had alleged that Shami abused her physically and mentally and that he was also involved in several extra-marital affairs.

Shami has rejected all allegations.
