Mysuru: Bollywood Celebrity Rakhi Sawant who is married to a Mysuru Businessman Adil Khan appeared before the Court here on Wednesday February 22. Actress Sherlyn Chopra was seen accompanying her.
Last month, Adil Khan was arrested in Mumbai for assaulting Rakhi Sawant and allegedly cheating her of her money.
Speaking to mediapersons here, Bigg Boss Former Contestant, Rakhi said that I appeal to the Court not to grant him bail. “We are legally husband and wife. I spoke to his father but the family is not ready to accept me as they say I not a Muslim. After I told him that I have now accepted Islam and that his son is married to me, he stopped taking my calls. Adil is always threatening me with ‘talaq’. What am I supposed to do? He has taken Rs 1.65 Cr from me and has not returned it. I have full faith in the Court here and I believe I will get justice,” said Rakhi, unable to control her tears.
She added, “I don’t want to give him divorce. I am his wife. His father spoke very rudely to me. I don’t know anyone in Mysuru, but I want justice. I have accepted Islam. I have all the documents of my marriage. Where should I go now? What should I do?”
“I met Adil in Mysuru one year ago, and eight months back we got married. I accepted Islam and we did ‘Nikah’. Our marriage was registered in Mumbai. He had promised me that we will have babies and do a lot of things together,” Sawant said.
“I even sold my jewellery but he took everything from me. He also started torturing me. He was having an affair with an Iranian girl in Mysuru for five years, who later accused him of rape. I got messages from the Iranian girl in which Adil claimed that he is just using me for money and promised her a house in Dubai. He also told her that I will be cheated by him,” she added.
Also, during her interaction, she collapsed. However, her friends and relatives who were with her helped her gain her composure and led her to the Court.
Police has taken Adil into custody from the Mumbai Police in connection with a rape complaint lodged against him by an Iranian student in Mysuru.
He was produced before the court on Wednesday which remanded him to seven-day Police custody.
