Pakistan Test captain Babar Azam has landed in huge trouble as an additional sessions court in Lahore directed the police to lodge an FIR against the cricketer. As per a report in news agency PTI, the case was filed on a sexual exploitation complaint, alleging that the 26-year-old cricketer forced a woman to undergo an abortion and made false marriage promises. The petitioner annexed her medical documents as evidence against the cricketer.

After hearing the arguments of both the parties, the additional sessions judge, Noman Muhammad Naeem, directed the SHO of Naseerabad police station to immediately register an FIR against Babar. The judge termed the allegations to be disturbing in nature and has ordered an in-depth investigation into the matter.         


Hamiza Mukhtar, the complainant, confirmed that the FIR has been lodged at the Naseerabad police station. 


Earlier, another additional session judge, Abid Raza had directed Babar and his family members not to harass Hamiza, who had alleged that she was getting threat calls to withdraw the case.


The woman also stated that she had tried to register an FIR against the cricketer earlier, but she then withdrew the application on marriage re-assurance.    


Babar, who didn't take part in the recently-concluded series in New Zealand due to a thumb fracture, is currently preparing for the home Test and T20 series against South Africa.
