A witness listed by industrialist Ness Wadia has told the police that it was Preity Zinta, who used harsh words against her ex-boyfriend during an IPL match here on 30 May. The witness, Savan Daru, a businessman, has recorded his statement on Friday before the Marine Drive police, which is probing the case, a police officer said on Sunday. ‘Daru claimed in his statement that Ness had leaned towards Zinta and spoke something to her. He could not hear the conversation between the two due to loud noise around,’ the officer added.
‘However, soon after Ness walked away from there, Preity started shouting at him very loudly and used harsh words,’ the officer said, quoting Daru.
Daru claimed Ness had come late to the stadium and was trying to find a seat for his mother, police said. In her police complaint registered in June, Zinta had accused her former boyfriend of molesting, abusing and threatening her during an IPL match between Kings XI Punjab and Chennai Super Kings on 30 May at Wankhede Stadium in South Mumbai. However, Wadia has dismissed the actor’s charges.
