Siddiqui family turns heat on Shaoib

Karachi/Hyderabad, Apr 2 (PTI) Turning the heat on Shoaib
Malik before his April 15 marriage to Sania Mirza, Ayesha
Siddiqui and her family on Friday threatened to sue the
Pakistani cricketer and made it clear that the unsavoury
chapter will be closed only if she gets an "official divorce".

Ayesha, who claims to have married Shoaib in 2002, went
the whole hog on Friday circulating copies of her 'nikahnama'
to Pakistani and Indian channels where she poured her heart
out on the break-up.
The marriage certificate was shown by several Pakistani
television channels and apparently contained the signatures of
Shoaib on the column for the groom and the name of Maha
Siddiqui on the column for the bride.
"I have released this marriage certificate because Shoaib
and his family have constantly been denying this marriage,"
Ayesha said.
28-year-old Shoaib is all set to tie the nuptial knot
with 23-year-old tennis sensation Sania on April 15 in
Hyderabad, which will be followed by a reception in Lahore.
"The only thing I want now is an official divorce from
him, but it has to be in the open and not behind closed doors
because he can always then deny it later as he has the
marriage. I want to end my ordeal, I want to move on and put a
stop to people asking me questions constantly about my
marriage to him. Even an official ‘talaq, talaq talaq’ will
do," she said.
Her father M A Siddiqui threatened to file a case against
Shoaib if he went ahead with the marriage to Sania without
divorcing Ayesha.
While the Siddiqui family claims Shoaib is married to
their daughter and Sania would be his second wife if they go
ahead with the marriage, the Pakistani cricketer and his
family have constantly denied that he ever entered into any
wedlock with Ayesha.
Siddiqui has threatened to sue Malik and also seek a
fatwa against him from Ulemas.
Ayesha said that she had released the Nikahnama because
it proved that the marriage did take place.
"They are signatures of witnesses on the certificate and
Shoaib sent me a copy for signature and a 'Haq Mahar' amount
of Pakistani 500 rupees," she said.
She said that Shoaib had always been unhappy with her
weight problems and for his sake, she had even gone and had a
surgery in Delhi.
"But I am devastated the way he is constantly denying
everything. I have nothing against Sania but the truth must
come out," Ayesha said. More PTI COR
