Sanjeeda Sheikh's sister in law files a complaint about domestic violence
Sanjeeda Sheikh is one of the Television's most loved faces and she has been seen in a number of serials and reality shows. Recently, something happened that shocked everybody around, Sanjeeda Sheikh and her family have been charged with domestic violence.
Sanjeeda's sister in law Zakerabanu Zakir Hussain Bagban has filed a domestic violence case against Sanjeeda, her brother Anas Abdul Rahim Sheikh and their mother, Anisha Sheikh. Zakerabanu mentioned in her complaint that she was speaking with her father over the phone on May 27 when the trio started yelling at her and beating her up, saying that they didn’t want her in their Mumbai home anymore.
On the same day, she took the first flight out to Ahmedabad, where her parents are based, and was admitted to a local hospital in Sarkhej Roza. After being discharged on May 29, she lodged a FIR at Sarkhej Police Station. This was soon followed by a petition from Sanjeeda’s lawyers seeking to reverse Zakerabanu’s FIR, which counter-alleged that Zakerabanu had a disturbed relationship with her father due to his orthodox attitude, which adversely affected her equation with her husband, Anas, and made it difficult for her to adjust to the more liberal environment of her marital home.

It further stated that on the day of the alleged incident, Zakerabanu informed Anas that she was not well and that she had quit the makeup Institute that she was training early to leave for her parents’ house. Sanjeeda had been shooting for her daily soap at the time of the alleged incident. Sanjeeda’s lawyer Sunny Punamiya told a leading tabloid,“The Hon’ble Court has passed an order in favour of my client by stating that the investigating agency should not take any coercive steps against her. In other words, the Hon’ble Court accepted our submission that the FIR is baseless, bad in the jurisdiction and merely filed to harass my client.”
