Nawazuddin Siddiqui's estranged wife Anjana on Wednesday has filed a police complaint against the actor accusing him of rape and cheating.
Anjana submitted a written application to the police station on Wednesday afternoon, he said.
According to a report in zoomtventertainment.com on Wednesday, Anjana's lawyer has issued an official statement that reads: "My client had submitted a detailed written complaint to Versova Police Station for Rape, Cheating and Deceitfully causing cohabitation by inducing her a belief of lawful marriage, under sections 375, 376 (k), 376 (n), 420 and 493 of the Indian Penal Code against Mr Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Hopefully, the F.I.R will be registered soon."
No First Information Report (FIR) has been registered yet and the police will first verify the complaint, he added.
The actor could not be contacted for comment.
Anjana had recorded her statement at Budhana police station in Muzaffarnagar in Uttar Pradesh last week in another complaint she has filed against Nawazuddin and four members of his family.
