The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) have told Kolkata police that pace bowler Mohammed Shami stayed in Dubai for two days last month.

The revelation comes after Shami’s wife, Hasin Jahan, has accused him of abusing her and having extramarital affairs with numerous women.

“We have received a letter from BCCI which shows that Mohammed Shami was in Dubai on 17th and 18th February. We are investigating the other things related to it,” Joint CP (crime) Praveen Tripathy was quoted as saying by The Indian Express.

The police are also investigating whether Shami stayed at the hotel by himself.

Meanwhile, an official said that a team of officers from the Koltaka police have been in Uttar Pradesh for the last three days to gather more details about the case.

“Our team couldn’t meet Shami’s family there,” the official said. “However, his wife Hasin Jahan had alleged that she was given sleeping pills and the family had tried to kill her. Police officials are trying to get in touch with the doctor who apparently treated her to know the truth.”

Jahan has also claimed that Shami received money from a UK national named Mohammed Bhai through a Pakistani woman, known as Alisba, in Dubai.

Delving more into who Alisba is, Jahan said: “Alisba has recently claimed that she is Shami’s fan, which is a big lie. She had plans to destroy my family life. Would any good character girl check into a hotel and spend time with a married man? But I cannot blame her alone when my husband himself had several extra-marital affairs.”
