Mohammed Shami to pay ₹4 lakh per month to estranged wife Hasin Jahan, orders Calcutta HC
Mohammed Shami has been directed to pay ₹1.5 lakh to his wife and ₹2.5 lakh to his daughter monthly, by the Calcutta High Court
THE Calcutta High Court on Tuesday ordered Indian pacer Mohammed Shami to pay ₹4 lakh every month to his estranged wife, Hasin Jahan, and daughter.
The Indian cricketer has been directed to pay ₹1.5 lakh to his wife and ₹2.5 lakh to his daughter monthly.
“In my considered opinion, a sum of Rs. 1,50,000/- per month to the petitioner no.1(wife) and Rs. 2,50,000/- to her daughter would be just fair and reasonable to ensure financial stability for both the petitioners…” reads the July 1 order passed by bench of justice Ajoy Kumar Mukherjee.
In 2018, Hasin Jahan had accused her now estranged husband Mohammed Shami of domestic violence, dowry harassment and match-fixing.
The Calcutta High Court's order comes after Jahan had approached the HC against a district sessions court's order directing Shami to pay ₹50,000 to her wife and ₹80,000 to her daughter in 2023.
Hasin Jahan worked as a model and also served as a cheerleader for the Kolkata Knight Riders before marrying cricketer Mohammed Shami in 2014. The couple gave birth to their daughter in 2015.
In 2018, Hasin had accused Shami of domestic abuse and adultery. She had also alleged that Shami did not give her the rights of a wife, as per reports.
