Digital Desk: Sapna Gill, a social media influencer who was arrested for allegedly assaulting India opener Prithvi Shaw, was sent into the custody of Mumbai police on Friday by the Andheri Court until February 20. Sapna was one of eight people arrested after the incident by Oshiwara Police under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (143, 148, 149, 384, 437, 504, 506).
Sapna, on the other hand, denied all wrongdoing and accused Prithvi Shaw of physical assault. "Prithvi physically assaulted Sapna. Prithvi was seen holding a stick. The group was attacked first by Prithvi's friends. Sapna is currently being held at the Oshiwara police station. The police are not allowing her to seek medical attention "Ali Kashif, Gill's lawyer, has claimed.
Prithvi Shaw had refused the group selfies and had them removed from a hotel where he was having dinner with a friend. Shaw was called up to the T20i squad in January for a three-match home series against the BlackCaps. The Mumbai opener, however, was not named to the starting XI.
Sapna's lawyer contended that Prithvi Shaw was attempting to murder the social media influencer while she was attempting to avoid him. The lawyer also stated that Prithvi Shaw has an alcohol problem, which is why he was banned by the BCCI.
The lawyer also claimed that Sapna did not request Rs 50000 to settle the case. Sapna's lawyer also stated that the police should conduct a thorough investigation. He went on to say that the CCTV should be checked, and that Prithvi Shaw had attacked Sapna.
