Sapna Gill and Prithvi Shaw

Sapna Gill, an accused in last week’s alleged attack on Prithvi Shaw’s car, has accused the cricketer of molesting her while he was allegedly intoxicated. She has also accused Shaw of assaulting her friend who merely asked for a selfie with the cricketer.

Sapna Gill, a social media influencer, was arrested last week along with other accused in the alleged attack on Prithvi Shaw’s car following an argument over clicking selfies at a hotel.

Gill, who was granted bail by a Magistrate court on Monday, has filed a complaint through her Advocate Kaashif Ali Khan at Airport police station seeking an FIR against Prithvi Shaw, his friend Ashish Yadav and others for allegedly molesting her and outraging of modesty.

In her complaint, Gill said that she and her Shobhit Thakur, spotted Shaw partying at an upmarket club which she and her friends often frequent. She said that Thakur—an avid cricket fan—approached Shaw for a selfie, however, the cricketer who was allegedly drunk, responded with hostility forcing her to intervene.

She claimed that Shaw and his friends assaulted Thakur and she had to intervene to stop them from harming the teenager… “Thakur, who is just a teenager, was unaware of the brutality of the drunken mob. “

Gill further claimed that Prithvi Shaw and his friend, who were allegedly, intoxicated, molested her and outraged her even as she pleaded and begged Shaw to stop.

The cricketer was reportedly manhandled and his car attacked with a baseball bat after a row that was triggered over clicking selfies at a party in Mumbai upmarket Sahara Star Hotel’s Mansion Club during the early hours of February 15.

Sapna Gill was arrested the next day while 19-year-old Sobhit Thakur was put behind bars on February 18. Police have charged eight people with rioting, assault, putting a person in fear of death or grievous hurt in order to commit extortion, criminal intimidation and other offences by Oshiwara police in connection with the incident on the complaint of Shaw’s friend Ashish Yadav.

According to police, Gill and Thakur had approached Shaw for selfies, which led to an argument as the cricketer refused to oblige after a couple of mobile phone photographs. Gill, Thakur as well as their six friends had waited for Shaw and his friend outside the hotel and allegedly chased them and also broke their car’s windscreen with a baseball bat.

Shaw had reportedly shifted to another while his friend Yadav approached the Oshiwara police station along with the attacked vehicle to file a complaint.

US reiterates its call for fair, transparent, legal process for Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, speaks on Congress frozen accounts

The US spokesperson said that they are also aware of the Congress party’s allegations that tax authorities have frozen some of their bank accounts in a manner that will make it challenging to effectively campaign in the upcoming elections.

A day after India summoned an US diplomat over their remarks on the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in the liquor policy case, the US reiterated its call for fair, transparent, timely legal processes on Wednesday.

Responding to questions on India summoning Gloria Berbena, the US Acting Deputy Chief of Mission in New Delhi, US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said that they will continue to follow these actions closely, including the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. Notably, the meeting at the foreign ministry’s South Block office lasted nearly 40 minutes yesterday with India objecting strongly to the US remarks on the arrest of Arvind Kejriwal.

Matthew Miller also responded to a question on the Congress party’s frozen bank accounts. The US spokesperson said that they are also aware of the Congress party’s allegations that tax authorities have frozen some of their bank accounts in a manner that will make it challenging to effectively campaign in the upcoming elections. He added that the US encourages fair, transparent and timely legal processes for each of the issues.

Arvind Kejriwal was arrested last week by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection to the Delhi liquor policy scam. Earlier, AAP leaders Manish Sisodia, Satyendar Jain and Sanjay Singh were arrested in the same case.

The External Affairs Ministry had earlier stated that states are expected to be respectful of the sovereignty and internal affairs of others, and this responsibility is even more so in case of fellow democracies, adding that it could otherwise end up setting unhealthy precedents.

The Ministry further emphasized that India’s legal processes are based on an independent judiciary which is committed to objective and timely outcomes. It mentioned that casting aspersions on India’s legal procedure is unwarranted.

The United State’s remarks followed days after Germany’s Foreign Office stressed that Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal is entitled to a fair and impartial trial. The Indian government labelled their remark as blatant interference in internal matters.

The Aam Aadmi Party had a double setback in Punjab as its lone Lok Sabha MP, Sushil Kumar Rinku from Jalandhar, and Jalandhar West MLA Sheetal Angural joined the BJP in Delhi on Wednesday. BJP national general secretary Vinod Tawde welcomed them in presence of Punjab BJP chief Sunil Kumar Jakhar and Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri.

Rinku said Aam Aadmi Party lagged behind in Jalandhar on the issue of its development. He said they had not fulfilled the promises which they had made during the byelection as the AAP government did not support him. He said he was impressed by the style of working of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah. He added that whatever works related to Jalandhar he took to Delhi were granted and the Adampur airport was made operational.

Rinku said Jalandhar had been given a stop for the Vande Bharat train. He said the people of Jalandhar need over bridges in the city and in Adampur. He said he was seeing a ray of hope by joining BJP. He said he is conducting a new experiment. He said he did not have greed for himself but he had wishes for the people of Jalandhar.

The Aam Aadmi Party came to know about the joining of Rinku to BJP when he suddenly disappeared from the AAP’s election campaign after he was named the candidate. He was among the first 8 candidates announced by the Aam Aadmi Party.

 Sheetal Angural became a first time MLA in 2022. He is going to hand over his resignation from the assembly on Thursday. With his resignation, the Jalandhar (west) seat will go into elections. Angural defeated Rinku in 2022 Assembly elections when the latter was in Congress. Earlier on Tuesday BJP had poached Congress MP from Ludhiana, Ravneet Bittu.
