Cricketer Prithvi Shaw in trouble Bombay HC issues notice over quashing FIR against Sapna Gill

Cricketer Prithvi Shaw and the Mumbai City Police on Thursday were served with a notice by the Bombay High for their response to a petition filed by social media influencer Sapna Gill over quashing an FIR registered in February this year against her for allegedly assaulting and demanding money from the athlete and for taking selfies. Gill later lodged a counter-complaint against the 23-year-old batsman and posted the matter for hearing in June.

Gill’s lawyer Ali Kashif Khan told the bench the police were hand in glove with the Mumbai cricketer and had lodged a fake case against the social media influencer.

Khan pined for a court direction to the police to procure and safeguard CCTV footage from inside the hotel in suburban Andheri to show what exactly transpired before the scuffle.

Meanwhile Gill, in the plea, also pined for direction to the police to not file a chargesheet against her in the case.
