'Best Moment For Hasin Jahan': Lawyer Reacts To Alimony Battle Win Vs Mohammed Shami
Mohammed Shami's estranged wife Hasin Jahan has won alimony case as Calcutta High Court directs Shami to pay Rs 4 lakh monthly for her and their daughter.
Star India pacer Mohammed Shami's estranged wife, Hasin Jahan's lawyer Imtiaz Ahmed, has said that she has been running from pillar to post for six years now, and it is the best moment for her to be able to ensure that her former husband pays her a monthly alimony.
The Calcutta High Court has directed Shami to pay his estranged wife, Jahan and daughter an alimony of Rs 4 lakh as maintenance during the ongoing legal battle with his spouse.
Jahan had moved the HC against a district sessions court's order directing the player to pay Rs 50,000 to his wife and Rs 80,000 to her daughter two years back.
'It was the best moment for Hasin Jahan. From 2018 to 2024, she had been running from pillar to post. Ultimately, it was pronounced in open court yesterday that ₹1.5 lakh would be provided for Hasin Jahan, ₹2.5 lakh for the daughter (both to be paid monthly) and that any time the daughter requires assistance, it would be provided by Md Shami," Imtiaz said while speaking to ANI.
Jahan had lodged an FIR at the Jadavpur police station against Shami and his family in March 2018, four years after their marriage in April 2014, alleging 'enormous physical and mental torture" under Section 12 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence (PWDV) Act.
Besides domestic violence, Jahan accused Shami of dowry harassment and match-fixing while alleging that the latter had stopped shouldering financial responsibility for running her family expenses.
Jahan had prayed for monetary relief, including an interim monetary relief of Rs 7 lakh every month for herself and an additional Rs 3 lakh for her daughter.
The magistrate, while disposing of her application, had rejected her plea for monetary relief and directed the pacer a pay Rs 80,000 towards his minor daughter.
On appeal, the order was later modified, directing Shami to a payment of Rs 50,000 to his wife and Rs 80,000 to his daughter.

Premature grant of bail compromises aim of PMLA: Delhi HC
The Delhi High Court has denied anticipatory bail to a Hong Kong-based Indian businessman in a PMLA case and said giving the reprieve prematurely impedes investigation and undermines the objective of anti-money laundering law. Justice Ravinder Dudeja denied the relief to Amrit Pal Singh in a Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) case. Singh was the director of Broway Group Ltd, which was the alleged beneficiary of "fraudulent" foreign outward remittances amounting to USD 2,880,210 (approximately Rs 20.75 crore), originating from Indian shell entities. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Senior Living Homes in Dalaon May Surprise You Senior Living | Search Ads Undo These transactions were made under the guise of import goods, without any actual corresponding business activity, the ED alleged. " Custodial interrogation may be warranted to ascertain the applicant's role in facilitating or benefiting from the alleged money laundering operation. Premature grant of bail would impede investigation and compromise the statutory objectives of the PMLA," the order read. Live Events The court on July 1 further noted that Singh's conduct, marked by sustained non-cooperation despite issuance of repeated notices, weighed heavily against the grant of pre-arrest protection. "His non-appearance in response to summons and evasion of investigation reflect a lack of bona fides and do not inspire confidence in his willingness to cooperate with the authorities... Notably, there is no denial on the applicant's part regarding the receipt of summons, yet he consistently failed to appear and evaded the process of law on untenable pretexts," the judge added. Criminal proceedings against the accused's company, the court said, were still at an initial stage.

Jane Street can't get away in India thanks to SEBI: Nithin Kamath
New Delhi: Zerodha co-founder and CEO Nithin Kamath on Friday praised the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) for taking strong action against US-based trading giant Jane Street, saying that India's robust regulatory framework does not allow market practices that are common in the West. In a post on social media platform X, Kamath said: "None of these practices would be allowed in India, thanks to our regulators", referring to US market structures like dark pools and payment for order flow -- mechanisms often criticised for favouring hedge funds at the expense of retail investors. Kamath's comments came in the wake of SEBI's interim order accusing Jane Street and its group entities of manipulating the Bank Nifty index using complex intra-day strategies. The regulator found that the firm booked massive profits of over Rs 43,289 crore between January 2023 and March 2025, largely through options trades, by artificially inflating and then dragging down the index -- especially on expiry days. Kamath noted the severity of the alleged manipulation, saying: "You've got to hand it to SEBI for going after Jane Street. If the allegations are true, it's blatant market manipulation." He added that the firm's continued actions even after alerts from the exchanges point to how accustomed some players are to the lenient oversight in other jurisdictions. However, Kamath also raised concerns about the potential downside of the action. He pointed out that proprietary trading firms like Jane Street contribute nearly 50 per cent of India's options trading volumes. If they decide to pull back in light of SEBI's crackdown, retail participation -- which makes up about 35 per cent -- could also take a hit. "This could be bad news for both exchanges and brokers," Kamath contended. He further remarked that the next few days would be crucial in understanding how dependent the Indian market is on large prop trading firms. 'F&O volumes might reveal just how reliant we are on these prop giants,' he added.

NIA arrests key absconding accused in murder of Karnataka BJP leader
A total of four accused, including Rahaman and two other absconders, were chargesheeted by the NIA in the case in April this year, taking the total chargesheeted in the case to 28. The accused, Abdul Rahaman, was taken into custody by the NIA team at the Kannur International Airport in Kerala on his arrival from Qatar, they said. New Delhi, Jul 4 (PTI) The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Friday arrested a key accused, who had been absconding for the last two years, in connection with its probe into the brutal murder of BJP leader Praveen Nettaru in Karnataka, officials said. The NIA had also declared rewards for information relating to six absconders. Rahaman was carrying a reward of Rs four lakh for this arrest. Investigations revealed that Rahaman, on directions of PFI leadership, voluntarily harboured the main assailants and others involved in the case, the agency said in a statement, adding that he fled to Qatar after the attackers were arrested. Nettaru was killed with sharp weapons by PFI cadres/members on July 26, 2022, in Bellare village of Sullia Taluk in Dakshina Kannada district, Karnataka, the statement said. The killing was part of a larger conspiracy aimed at striking terror among the people and unleashing communal hatred and unrest in the society, the NIA said. The NIA, which re-registered the case on August 4, 2022, is trying to track down the remaining absconders. PTI AKV AKV MPL MPL This report is auto-generated from PTI news service.
