Former Indian fast bowler Praveen Kumar is in the news for all the wrong reasons. The 33 year-old has been accused of beating up his neighbour and also manhandling a minor boy in Uttar Pradesh's TP Nagar locality.
The Station House Officer (SHO) of the area Dinesh Chand confirmed that the complaint from both sides has been received and investigation was underway to verify the charges. ¡°A case will be lodged on the basis of the findings,¡± he told ANI.
It comes after Praveen's neighbour Deepak Sharma alleged that the former Indian pacer thrashed him and his seven year-old son.
According to Sharma, the bus driver had stopped the bus to drop the child when Kumar arrived there in his car. Sharma said he started honking to get the bus to move to a side. Reportedly, the cricketer then came out of his car and protested against blocking of the road. Sharma and Kumar engaged in an altercation, which led to manhandling.
Praveen Kumar, who initially did not speak to the media, said later, ¡°I was an international cricketer. I have two kids - a daughter and a son. I have never killed an ant then why would I beat a boy? The boy and his father Deepak Sharma, who is my neighbour, thrashed me up when I alighted from my car last evening (Saturday) near my home.¡±
The police is still looking into the matter and has bot come to any conclusion. The fiery character of Praveen Kumar can't quite catch a break.
