Sources said Shami wanted to open a sports academy in Ali Nagar village of Amroha district of Uttar Pradesh and has purchased around 60 acres (150 bigah) of land for the same purpose.
"Hasin farmhouse, Shami properties, Budhanpur road, Sahaspur, Ali Nagar," reads a board placed outside the farmhouse.
The cricketer has invested around Rs. 12-15 crore in purchasing the land but this investment angered Hasin Jahan as she wanted Shami to buy property in West Bengal, the source said.
Sources said though the farmhouse is on the name of Hasin but on papers Shami's wife has no share in it.
Shami hails from Amroha district of Uttar Pradesh and currently resides in Kolkata with his wife and daughter and represents Bengal in first-class cricket.
The family source believed the disagreement over the purchase of property in Amroha led to the marital strife between Shami and Hasin.
Shami’s wife, Hasin Jahan stunned the cricket fans last week by claiming Shami had extra-marital affairs with multiple women. She also accused Shami and his family of physical and mental assault and lodged an FIR with the Lalbazar Police Station in Kolkata.
Shami has unequivocally denied all the allegations and claimed a major conspiracy behind these charges. He said he would go to any extent to save his family.
Shami has demanded a thorough investigation into the allegation levelled against him by his wife.
Hasin also alleged that Shami had stayed with a Pakistani woman in Dubai.
The Kolkata Police have said they were yet to verify whether Shami was the only Indian player to take a detour through Dubai. If yes, they will like to know who funded the trip.
The police have also seized the mobile phone which wife Hasin Jahan claimed was Shami's.
