Cricketer Yash Dayal, who plays for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), has moved the Allahabad High Court challenging an FIR lodged against him for allegedly sexually exploiting a woman.
The matter will likely be heard by a division bench next week.
The FIR was registered against 27-year-old Dayal on July 6 at Indirapuram police station in Ghaziabad under section 69 (Sexual intercourse by employing deceitful means etc.) of BNS.
Dayal has been accused of sexually exploiting a woman on the pretext of marriage. According to the complainant, the two had met around five years ago, and Dayal had promised to marry her.
The alleged victim has also claimed that Dayal kept postponing her proposal to marry, and eventually, she came to know Dayal was involved with other women as well.
