Shaw and his friends' cars were thrashed by Gill and her friends after the batter refused selfie requests.
Sapna Gill had filed a criminal complaint against Shaw and his friend Ashish Yadav earlier this year before the magistrate court in Andheri for molesting and assaulting her with a baseball bat.
It was Shaw who had first filed a complaint against Gill and her friends for assaulting him after the cricketer refused a request for a selfie inside a hotel. Shaw alleged he was attacked with a baseball bat and the windshield of his car was damaged during the altercation.
Gill was arrested following the complaint but was released on bail. She then filed a complaint against Shaw and Yadav.
The Airport Police has found no evidence to support the accusation of molestation leveled by a social media influencer against India cricketer Prithvi Shaw in Mumbai.
“There is no evidence to support the accusation of molestation for misbehavior against Shaw and Gill’s allegation is false,” Hindustan Times quoted the report submitted by the police as saying.
Citing a statement, they have recorded the hotel staffer where the incident happened, police said Shaw objected to Gill’s friend Shobit Thakur taking a video of the cricketer.
“The staffer said that when they were being escorted out, he heard Gill say that ‘dekh ab main uski kya haalat karti hoon’ (Now, see what I will do to him). They then left. After half an hour, Shaw and his friends left too. The staffer said that Shaw had not misbehaved with Gill at all on February 15,” police said in the report.
Gill, however, said that when her friend asked Shaw for a selfie, the cricketer grabbed the device and beat it before they attacked Thakur. Shaw allegedly grabbed her sexually after she pleaded with them to stop attacking her buddy.
Statements of the CISF officials who were at the spot after being alerted of the brawl were also recorded.
“They saw that the front windshield of Shaw’s car was broken, and they had seen Gill with a baseball bat in her hand,” the police report said.
