Mohammad Shami's wife Hasin Jahan wants ACU's report to be made public

According to her, the former Delhi police commissioner Neeraj Kumar didn't meet her at all.

Kolkata: Mohammad Shami’s wife (Hasin Jahan) wants the probe report prepared by BCCI’s Anti Corruption head Neeraj Kumar’s be made public. According to her, the former Delhi police commissioner Neeraj Kumar didn’t meet her at all.

Speaking exclusively over her mobile, she said, “I am not surprised with the Indian cricket board’s decision of awarding the contract to my husband. But it is a fact that Neeraj Kumar, whom the CoA had directed to probe, has never meet me. I only met a few junior level officials, supposedly sent by him.”

The fact was also confirmed by her lawyer, Zakir Hussain. “We submitted all photographs, proofs and evidence related to Shami’s character. Our main concern was his connection with the women and the BCCI had withheld his contract on the basis of his bad image. At that time the fixing allegations had not even surfaced,” he said.

“Will request the Indian cricket board to make Shami’s report public,” Hussain added.

“We have no issues even if my husband is given a clean chit on fixing charges, though I had submitted all his conversation and text messages,” Hasin Jahan said.

“It is not going to make any difference (to me), if he starts playing again for the country, but what about his character? It is amusing that the BCCI has not considered his character and public image and said they were not concerned about his personal life,” Jahan said.

In the evening, Jahan met West Bengal chief minister Mamta Banerjee. “Yes, I accompanied Hasin to meet the CM. Mamta madam gave a motherly treatment to my client and consoled her with words of sympathy. Obviously, she cannot take up the issues with the Indian cricket board but assured her support,” Hussain said.

Shami’s wife also spoke of Bangladesh cricketer Mohammad Shahid, who too was charged for harassing his wife (Far-zana). “If the Bangladesh Cricket Board took action against him and revoked his contract, why is Shami not being given the same treatment for the same offence,” she asked.
