FIR Filed Against Former India Captain Mohammad Azharuddin For Duping Travel Agent

Former India captain Mohammad Azharuddin is consulting his legal team after an FIR was filed against him in Aurangabad and two others for allegedly duping a travel agent to the tune of Rs 20.96 lakh.

The complainant Mohammad Shahab, who owns Danish Tours and Travels agency in Aurangabad, has claimed he booked several international flights worth Rs 20.96 lakh in name of Azharuddin and few others in November last year. The requests for the same were made by Azharuddin’s personal assistant Mujib Khan and despite repeated promises, Shahab is yet to receive the payments.

However, Azharuddin, now president of Hyderabad Cricket Association, has dismissed the allegations as ‘rubbish’, saying he will take actions after consulting his legal time. “I strongly rubbish the false FIR filed against me in Aurangabad. I’m consulting my legal team, and would be taking actions as necessary,” he wrote on his official Twitter account accompanied by a video.
