Kolkata Police have charged India speedster Mohammed Shami and his brother with IPC sections related to rape, domestic violence and causing hurt with poison following a complaint by Hasin Jahan, the cricketer’s wife.  The sections invoked against the 27-year-old pacer, who made his debut in November 2013, include 307 (attempt to murder), 498A (domestic violence), 506 (criminal intimidation), 328 (causing hurt by means of poison), 34 (acts by several persons in furtherance of common intention) and 376 (rape). The last section was brought against Shami’s elder brother.

“My husband’s elder brother, Hasib Ahmad, raped me when I went to my in-law’s place in Uttar Pradesh last year,” said Jahan on Friday morning. Some sections are non-bailable and carry prison terms of 10 years or more. Kolkata Police commissioner Rajeev Kumar and joint commissioner (crime) Praveen Kumar Tripathi did not respond to calls and text messages.

“I have been informed by Kolkata Police officers over phone that they have slapped non-bailable sections against Shami and starting a case against him,” said Zakir Hossain, Jahan’s lawyer.

Mohammad Shami and Hasin Jahan got married on April 7, 2014, about two years after they met at a party of the Kolkata Knight Riders in 2012. They have a two-and-a-half-year old daughter. Jahan said around noon on Friday that she was yet to be called by the police for recording her statement.
