FIR Filed Against Mohammed Shamis Ex Wife Hasin Jahan For Attempted Murder- WATCH Viral Video

Mohammed Shami's estranged wife, Hasin Jahan, and their daughter have landed in legal trouble following a violent altercation that has gone viral on social media. According to a report by the Free Press Journal, an FIR has been filed against the duo under serious charges including attempt to murder, criminal conspiracy, and assault. The incident unfolded in Ward Number 5 of Suri, where Dalia Khatun, Hasin's neighbour, lodged a formal complaint. Dalia alleged that Hasin and her daughter attacked her over a disputed plot of land. As per the complaint, Hasin was supervising construction work on the plot, which she claims is registered in her daughter Arshi's name. However, Dalia raised objections, triggering a confrontation that soon spiraled into a physical brawl. A video capturing the ugly clash has since gone viral. In the footage, Hasin is seen wearing a black T shirt and jeans, while Dalia appears in a maxi and dupatta. The video shows the two women involved in a heated scuffle with bricks being displaced and tempers flaring. Dalia has alleged that she was 'beaten black and blue' by Hasin and her daughter. #Shami's ex-wife, Hasin Jahan, was caught on camera raising her hands on a neighbour in a fight. — ShoneeKapoor (@ShoneeKapoor) July 16, 2025 FIR Lodged Under Multiple Sections of the IPC West Bengal police have confirmed that an FIR has been registered against both Hasin and Arshi under several sections of the Indian Penal Code, including attempt to murder and criminal conspiracy. Though no arrests have been made as of yet, authorities have launched a full-scale investigation. Police further revealed that the ownership of the land remains contentious. Hasin has reportedly failed to present solid proof supporting her claim. If the charges are proven in court, the matter could escalate into a prolonged legal dispute. A Legal Storm Brewing Amid Personal Turmoil This new controversy comes at a time when Hasin Jahan is already embroiled in a long-standing legal battle with cricketer Mohammed Shami. The timing couldn't be worse, especially considering the emotional message Shami shared recently for their daughter Aaira. Alimony Dispute with Mohammed Shami Still Ongoing The land dispute and assault charges come just weeks after a Calcutta High Court ruling in Hasin's favour regarding interim maintenance. The court ordered Mohammed Shami to pay ₹4 lakh per month ₹2.5 lakh for their daughter and ₹1.5 lakh to Hasin herself. This was a significant increase from the previous monthly maintenance of ₹80,000 for the child and ₹50,000 for Hasin. The court justified the hike by citing Shami's current earnings and the standard of living both mother and daughter were accustomed to during their time with him. While Shami is currently dealing with fitness concerns and potential team selections, this latest development adds another layer of complexity to his already eventful off-field life

'God's Way Of Teaching': Drunk Thief Falls Asleep Mid-Heist In Jharkhand Temple

Last Updated: The man attempted to rob the Kali temple but ended up dozing off during the act as he was heavily intoxicated. A bizarre incident from Noamundi in Jharkhand has gone viral for all the wrong reasons. A man named Veer Nayak attempted to rob at Kali temple but ended up dozing off during the act, all because he was heavily intoxicated. When locals and temple priests arrived the next morning, they were shocked to find Nayak fast asleep inside the sanctum, surrounded by the very items he had tried to steal. According to reports in the Free Press Journal, Veer had been drinking with friends on the night of July 14. After getting drunk, he climbed over the temple wall, broke the lock, and entered. Inside, he grabbed whatever he could—decorative items, a bell, a puja thali, jewellery, and even the deity's crown. He stuffed everything into bags and was ready to run, but felt drowsy and ended up taking a nap instead. On the morning of July 15, people visiting the temple noticed someone sleeping inside. When they opened his bags, they were shocked to see that they were filled with temple valuables. They immediately informed Barajamda OP in-charge Baleshwar Oraon, who rushed to the spot. You Can Watch It Here: Police confirmed the man's arrest. During questioning, Veer admitted that he had planned to steal from the temple but claimed he didn't even realise when he had fallen asleep. Many locals believe that what happened was not just an accident, but a sign from the goddess. The priest of the temple told India Today: 'This is not ordinary. It is the Goddess's way of teaching a lesson." People are calling it divine justice, saying Goddess Kali made the thief fall asleep to stop him. Meanwhile, police are still investigating the case. In another bizarre case of a thief dozing off mid-heist, an incident was reported from Lucknow in 2024. A thief broke into a doctor's locked house but ended up falling asleep inside with the air conditioner on. The incident happened in Indira Nagar's Sector-20 in 2024, as reported by The Times of India. The house belonged to Dr. Sunil Pandey, who works at Balrampur Hospital and was away on duty in Varanasi, leaving the house empty. The thief, later identified as Kapil, entered the home, looted valuables, and then turned on the AC to rest. However, he was so intoxicated that he fell asleep. The next morning, neighbours grew suspicious after noticing the front door open. When they looked inside, they found the house in a mess with items scattered everywhere. They immediately called the police. The police arrived and found Kapil sleeping inside, surrounded by the stolen items. He had broken into cupboards, taken cash, and even tried to steal household items like a washbasin, gas cylinder, and water pump, but passed out before he could finish. Kapil was arrested on the spot and booked under IPC Section 379 A for theft. view comments Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

"I have stopped feeling bad or good...": Ram Gopal Varma doesn't feel anything about critics; reveals the deep meaning behind the title 'Saaree'

Ram Gopal Varma , the avant-garde filmmaker, has always stood firm on his decisions and is acclaimed for his work. While critics have expressed mixed reviews of his production's latest release, 'Saaree,' the 63-year-old declared that he has stopped thinking about good or bad response, citing that criticism is a part of the industry. Ram Gopal Varma's latest release 'Saaree' In an interview with Free Press Journal, Varma was asked about the ideation and response of 'Saaree,' which was released in theatres quite a while ago and has now been released on OTT. When asked about how he came up with the idea for the film, the 'Satya' director said that he heard a lot of stories about social media connections that are formed without knowing each other's backgrounds. However, the connections can soon turn obsession and a dangerous entanglement. 'A famous case happened in South India about a few years ago where a guy, after getting in touch with a girl on social media, went to the extent of becoming so dangerous that he wanted to eliminate everyone who was between them,' he said. Why is the title 'Saaree'? The title might be a word, but it has layers of meaning in it. Varma explained that the title 'Saaree' came up for two reasons: one, where the stalker sees the girl when she is in a saree, and the other refers to the provocative narrative of what the girl might be wearing. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Đây có thể là thời điểm tốt nhất để giao dịch vàng trong 5 năm qua IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Certainly, in the context, the incident occurs despite the girl's traditional attire. "I have stopped feeling bad or good" Furthermore, claiming that he doesn't get worked up over the critics, RGV stated, 'I think, especially because I've been for a long time, I have stopped feeling bad or good about anything. I have realised it's a part of being in the industry.' Ram Gopal Varma supports OTT platforms ... Meanwhile, Varma praised OTT platforms, citing that it's an advantage to both filmmakers and audiences. 'If you look at it today, most of the foreign films or maybe other language films, you don't even know when it was released, but years later, you discover that film. So, I think it's a great opportunity for any filmmaker, not only me,' he said, before adding, 'OTT platforms are the biggest advantage for both filmmakers and audiences. For the audience, it gives them enough time to discover whatever they might like, irrespective of when it was released in the theatres.'
