Mohammed Shami and his brother were interrogated by the Kolkata Police after Shami’s wife had launched a complaint against him at the Lalbazaar Police Station, Kolkata. Shami had to leave his Delhi Daredevils as he was summoned up by the Kolkata Police.

It is learned that Shami and his brother was interrogated separately as well as together by Neeloo Sherpa (Chakraborty), Deputy Commissioner of Police, detective department, and Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime), Pravin Tripathi. Mr. Pravin Tripathi spoke to the pres and said that their statements were recorded and they haven’t decided as yet if they should take the statement of Pakistani girl Alisbah.

“We have recorded their statement and they claimed that all the charges made against them by Jahan are false. We are exploring all allegations including the Dubai part. We have not yet decided whether to take the statement of Pakistani girl Alisbah,” Mr. Tripathi said.

He also said that Shami’s other family members will soon be questioned as a part of the interrogation. “Our investigation in on and soon Shami’s mother (Anjuman Ara-Begum) and Ahmad’s wife (Shama) will be questioned. Our team will go to Uttar Pradesh to record their statements. Their names are also in FIR,” he added.

Shami can join his IPL side: Police department

The joint-commissioner of Police also noted that Shami’s passport was not seized by the department. He also said that they’re not allowed to disclose the investigation related information and that will remain a mystery to the common public. He also said that Shami can go and join his IPL side.

“We have not seized his passport. As far as the video recording of his statement is concerned, I will not be able to disclose the investigation part. We have got no objection in Shami joining his IPL side. But if need be, we will call him again,” Tripathi said.

The media also questioned as to how Shami was escorted from the Police station as not many could spot him leaving. “I’ve no idea about the police escort. It’s not in my knowledge. Please clarify this with the headquarters, safety, and security of Indian players is a different issue,” Tripathi said.
