Woman accuses Pakistan’s cricket captain of sexual, physical assault
A Lahore-based woman has accused Pakistan cricket captain Babar Azam of sexual and physical assault, and said he had also threatened to kill her.
Addressing a press conference on Saturday, the unidentified woman said that the two used to live together and went to the same school.
“I and Babar [Azam] grew up in the same society, we used to stay together and we were school friends. In 2010, he proposed to me at my place and I accepted it”, she said.
The woman also accused Azam of physically abusing her and threatening to kill her.
She said because #Azam was from a poor family, she took care of his financial expenses in the early part of his career.
Neither the #Pakistan_Cricket_Board nor Azam have responded to the allegations.
