Molestation Case: Court Gives Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s Wife One Month’s Time To Reply To Police Closure Report

In the last hearing on September 19, the court had issued a notice to Aaliya, asking her to appear before it on October 7 after police filed the final report, giving a clean chit to Siddiqui, his mother Mehrunisa and brothers Faizuddin, Ayazuddin and Minazuddin.

Special judge Ritesh Sachdeva gave Aliya one month’s time to file her response. The court fixed November 7 as the next date of hearing.

Government counsel Pradeep Balyan had earlier told PTI that police had given a clean chit to all five accused in the molestation case.

According to prosecution, Siddiqui’s brother Minazuddin had allegedly molested a minor family member in 2012 while the others had supported him.

An FIR was registered in Mumbai on the basis of a complaint filed by Aaliya and later shifted to Budhana police station here in 2020.
