Former cricketer and Trinamool Congress MP Yusuf Pathan’s in-laws were arrested earlier today for assaulting a family of three in Mumbai. Pathan’s father-in-law and brother-in-law are accused of thrashing a man and his relatives with bamboo sticks and a baseball bat after their car splashed water on them.
What’s The Case
Water that had accumulated on a road in Mumbai’s Byculla area splashed onto Khalid Pathan and Shoaib Khan – the father-in-law and brother-in-law of the former cricketer – after a car driven by one Yusuf Pathan passed through the puddle. This led to a verbal altercation followed by a physical assault.
It began with Shoaib verbally confronting Pathan and breaking his car’s windshield using a bamboo stick.
“My brother, Yusuf Pathan, and I were returning from dinner when some mud splashed onto a man named Shoaib,” said Salman while speaking to NDTV. “We stopped the car and apologised but Shoaib refused to listen and instead broke our car’s windshield.”
