Shami sustained minor injuries and got a few stitches on his head. He is currently recuperating in Dehrꦏadun. He is out of danger.
The 27-year-old Shami trained for two days at the Abhimanyu Cricket Academy (ACA), run by Bengal batsman and India 'A' player Abhimanyu Easwaran's father in Dehradun to rejuvenate himself mentally and physically. He had cl🐽aimed that he has been under "mental tourture" after his wife Hasin Jahan lodged a complaint of domestic violence and infidelity against him. Shami has denied all the allegations.
"Mohammed Shami is safe and sound. He was returning to Delhi from Dehradun after training when there was a minor collision with his car. He was taken to the hospital and got a few stitches on his head. He is perfectly fine and advised rest for a day. He is at a private place after being discharged yesterday only. He will return to Delhi tomorrow if health permits. There is no such injury which can hamper his participation in IPL," Abhimanyu father Easwaran RP told PTI.
The Indian pacer is in the news for wrong reasons. Recently his wife Hasin Jahan ꧒lodged a complaint of domestic violence and infidelity against the cricketer. He has been booked under var𒆙ious non-bailable, including attempt to murder, and bailable sections. She also hinted that Shami was involved in match-fixing.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India, however, cleared Shami's central contract o𝄹n Friday after its anti-corruption unit exo🎃nerated him of corruption charges levelled by Jahan.
On Friday, Jahan met West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee in connection with her complaint of domestic violence and infidelity🥃 against the cricket🉐er.
Banerjee met the cricketer's wife at the state assembly for around 15 minutes and heard Jahan's complaint agains🃏t Shami.
Stating that she was content with her meeting with Banerjee, Jahan told reporters "She listened to me. The chief minister was kind and empathetic. She 💟has assured me of all support."
Banerjee had asked Jahan to meet her a🐈t the assembly ✃after the cricketer's wife went to her Kalighat residence on Monday and submitted a petition seeking time for it.
She had also alleged that the cricketer had taken money from a Pakistani woman named Alishba on the insistence of an 🗹England-bꩵased businessman, Mohammad Bhai.
Shami has been given a Grade 'B' annual contract, which will make him richer by Rs 3 crore. He will also be free to play in the Indian Premier League for his franch🙈ise - the Delhi 𒆙Daredevils starting April 7.
Jahan's lawyer h♛ad demanded that the BCCI come out with the details of its probe that led to the giving of the clean chit to the India pacer🥀.
Kolkata Police had registered c🍰ases under non-bailable sections 307 (attempt to murder), 498-A (subjecting a woman to cr🥂uelty) and 376 (punishment for rape).
Five persons including Shami have🌌 been booked under bailable sections 323 (causing hurt) and 506 (criminal intimidation) among others.
