Mohammed Shami’s wife alleges match fixing; took money from Pakistani citizen

Hasin Jahan had earlier made allegations against Shami about domestic violence and infidelity through social media. Later, the cricketer posted a tweet saying that all the charges were “absolutely false” and it was a “conspiracy” to ruin his career. Now, Jahan alleged that Shami took money from a Pakistani woman named Alishba and may be involved in match-fixing.

It is also learnt that Shami’s wife filed a written complaint against him and his family members. The Kolkata police started a case against the 27-year-old under several sections of the Indian Penal Code along with 498A, which includes cruelty to a woman by her husband or his relatives.

After the incident, BCCI had decided to withhold Shami's name from the official annual contracts list. Shami, who was in Dharamsala when his wife started targeting him, refused all the charges and seemed disappointed with the fixing charges.

"Hasin(wife) and her family have been saying that we will sit and talk out all issues, but I don't know who has been misleading her. As far as allegation of compromising my performance playing for the country is concerned, I would rather die than do something like this," he told ANI.
