Wadia case: Police may record Preity's statement today

June 24, 2014 01:08

The statement of Bollywood actor Preity Zinta, who has accused her ex-boyfriend industrialist Ness Wadia of outraging her modesty, is likely to be recorded on Tuesday inside Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

"We may record the statement of the actress at Wankhede Stadium where the incident took place. We will reconstruct the sequence of events that led to the spat between the two as it would give us a better understanding of the case," said a police officer privy to the investigation.

Investigators also want to find out from the 39-year-old co-owner of Kings XI Punjab which was the exact spot where the alleged incident took place at the South Mumbai stadium and who all were around at the time.

In her written complaint to police, Zinta had claimed, "I left for my seat, but he (Ness) came up to me at my seat and started screaming and abusing me in front of everyone."

Zinta's statement will form the basis of further probe in the case, the officer said. "We want to know where she was sitting and who were these 'everyone' she was referring to," he added.

"We will decide on the next course of action once Zinta's statement is recorded," the officer said.
