Mumbai: Bollywood actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s wife lodged a counter FIR against five fellow residents of a housing society here for allegedly rioting and threatening her after he was booked on the charge of assaulting and misbehaving with a woman over a parking row in the complex.
Police said on Monday that the complaint by Siddiqui’s wife Aaliya was lodged Sunday night with Versova police against five persons of the housing society in suburban Andheri including the complainant, hours after she named the actor in an FIR alleging assault.
“It’s a cross complaint as yesterday afternoon a woman had lodged a case against the actor who stays in the same society. We have registered the FIR,” a police official said. The statements of the actor, his wife, and the five persons were recorded on Monday.
Siddiqui said, “Police did not summon me. But being a responsible person and citizen I came with my lawyer and briefed about the incident.”
