Former Indian leg spinner Amit Mishra has come forward to clear the air around reports that claimed that his wife has filed a domestic violence and dowry harassment case against him and his family.
Several media reports claimed that the former Indian international’s wife Garima has filed a case of domestic violence against him along with a dowry harassment case.
Now, the 42-year-old has decided to quash all those rumours. He said that he was shocked and disappointed to see his name and photo being used in stories that have nothing to do with him or his family. He warned media outlets to stop using his picture in such reports, or else he’ll consider taking them to court.
On the social media platform X, Mishra wrote, “I’m extremely disappointed by what’s being circulated in the media. I’ve always respected the press, but while the news itself may be accurate, the photograph used is mine—which is completely incorrect.”
