Mohammed Shami in trouble, Kolkata court issues arrest warrant against the pacer

Indian cricketer Mohammed Shami is in big trouble again as Kolkata court issued an arrest warrant against the ace pacer. The Alipore Court in Kolkata has issued an arrest warrant in a domestic violence case registered against him by his wife Hasin Jahan in 2018. Shami now has 15 days to surrender and apply for bail.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has made it clear that no action will be taken against Shami until they see the charge sheet.

“Yes, we do understand that an arrest warrant has been issued. But don't really see us getting involved in this at this point in time. Once we see the charge sheet, we can decide how things stand and if the BCCI constitution calls for any action. But at this point in time, I would say it is too early to take a call on the matter,” a BCCI functionary said to IANS.

The Indian team is currently playing Test match against West Indies in the Caribbean and Mohammed Shami is part of the team. Shami is part of the playing XI and will return after the series is over on September 3.
