Arrest Warrant Filed Against Indian 'Pace Express' Mohammad Shami

Guwahati, September 2, 2019:

An arrest warrant has been issued against India's 'pace express' Mohammed Shami. The celebrated fast bowler now 15 days in which to surrender and apply for bail.

Pace-bowler Mohammed Shami is currently playing the second and the final Test against the West Indies in an away tour in the Caribbean.

In 2018, Shami's wife, Hasin Jahan, had accused him of domestic violence. Shami and his brother were booked for domestic violence under IPC Section 498A.

Since Hasin Jahan made the allegations, Mohammed Shami did not appear before court following which the ACJM gave the order.

It may be mentioned here that Shami, along with Jaspreet Bumrah, have bolstered the Indian bowling attack. The speedster has 131 wickets from 70 ODIs and recently reached the landmark of 150 wickets in his 42nd Test match. He also played a key role in India's 2019 Worl Cup campaign.

Soon after Hasin Jahan went public with her allegations, she and Shami were involved in a war-of-words in the media.

In April 2019, Hasin Jahan was taken into custody by police in Uttar Pradesh's Amroha in after she reached her husband's house and created a ruckus. She was later released on bail.
