At a press conference, MA Siddiqui said the ‘nikahnama’ that had been produced before the media was genuine, having the stamp of the Qazi who conducted the wedding, the signature of the witnesses and of Shoaib himself.
Ayesha, who claims to have married Shoaib in 2002, went the whole hog today circulating copies of her nikahnama to Pakistani and Indian channels.
Siddiqi said he was against his daughter getting married in Pakistan due to strained relations between two neighborly countries.
The Malik family will regret this incident, he added, repeatedly saying that he had been cheated. Siddiqui threatened to sue Malik and also seek a fatwa against him from Ulemas.
“My daughter and Shoaib met in Dubai and entered into a correspondence. They ultimately married. But Shoaib kept torturing her over her weight,” he said.
Siddiqui said he did not want any money or any other benefit from the Maliks. “We just want a public divorce for my daughter or else we will take legal action against him,” he said.
“I wonder how he is marrying Sania now. We are not against Sania but we want things to end with Ayesha first.”
“My daughter wants a public divorce from Shoaib Malik, who is a liar,” he said.
