Mohammed Shami slams Hasin Jahan's match-fixing claims, talks about police complaint
New Delhi: The problem seems never ending for Team India pacer Mohammed Shami after his wife Hasin Jahan accused him of having extra-marital affairs, torture, and even match-fixing.
Jahan, who got married to the UP-born speedster in 2014 on Thursday, registered a complaint against him at Lal Bazar Police Station in Kolkata. Previously on Wednesday, in a series of posts on Facebook and WhatsApp chats, Jahan accused Shami of cheating on her.

She also alleged that the Bengal pacer took money from a Pakistani woman by the name of Alishba under the influence of England-based businessman Mohammed Bhai. “If Mohammed Shami can cheat me then he can cheat the country as well. He accepted money from a Pakistani girl named Alisbah in Dubai. He agreed to accept it after the insistence of England-based Mohammed Bhai. I have proof,” she was quoted saying to ABP.

The cricketer on Thursday dismissed all the allegation against him and lashed out at his wife saying that she has "lost her mental balance".
"She has lost her mental stability. She has to prove all the allegations made against me. If I have tortured her then she needs to prove it." said Shami addressing a press conference.
The cricketer said that the entire incident has mentally disturbed him and he is ready to take legal action against his wife.
"The entire episode is disturbing. I don't know what she is up to. She needs to explain what has changed so much in these few days. She is suddenly leveling all these accusations on me. She is accusing of harassment. She is even accusing me of match-fixing. I think she has lost her mental balance or it might be her game plan to sabotage my career," he said.
"I will also take legal action against her. Me and my family always wanted to stay with her. I have always loved her. You have seen that how happy we were in the interview. But I feel she is planning something evil."
Inspite of central contract being withheld by BCCI due to the ongoing issue with his wife, Shami said that he has full faith on the cricket board.
"As far as cricket is concerned, I trust the BCCI will check this matter with their legal team and then take a decision on my contract. They must have thought about it before taking this decision," Shami said.
