A Police complaint was lodged against Sacred Games actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui by his estranged wife Aaliyah Siddiqui, who now goes by her maiden name Anjana Pandey, had accused him of alleged rape and cheating.
Now, Nawazuddin’s brother, Shamas Nawab Siddiqui, has come out in his defence saying that the accusations are untrue that he would approach the Bombay High Court over the matter.
Anjana had also tweeted claiming Shamas has been absconding for almost a week and that he is wanted by the Police for serious crimes.
Shamas goes on to respond to the tweet saying that he was never on the run and his ‘absense’ was due to him being out for his next film. His tweet reads, “I ws never on d run, I ws out fr my next film’s recce & in regard to d false complaint against me, it has been stayed by d Hon’ble Bombay High Court The complaint against Mr. Nawazuddin Siddiqui is also false & will be heading to Hon’ble BHC for this too.”
Shamas Siddiqui also goes on to tweet that even if there are 10-12 more false allegations put out against him, he will go on to obtain his 2.16 Cr after a court hearing. “Chahe to 10-12 Jhoote cases kar do but Mai apna 2.16 Cr tumse court mein le kar hi rahunga…. Parivaar ko bhi jhoote cases mein phasaya ja raha Hai aur ye saza mil rahi hai 30 crore ki demnd Puri na karne ki….”
Shamas then tweets saying, “Who is behind for all this and why they are doing? Wait for 2 days.”
As per a DNA report, Anjana’s lawyer has issued an official statement that reads, “My client had submitted a detailed written complaint to Versova Police Station for Rape, Cheating and Deceitfully causing cohabitation by inducing her a belief of lawful marriage, under sections 375, 376 (k), 376 (n), 420 and 493 of the Indian Penal Code against Mr Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Hopefully, the F.I.R will be registered soon.”
Anjana had also filed a complaint against Shamas accusing him of molesting her. She also tweeted the rejection of his bail plea.
