Lahore High Court quashes petition against Shaoib Malik for overspending on marriage

Lahore, Apr.28 (ANI): The Lahore High Court (LHC) has quashed a petition seeking action against cricketer Shoaib Malik and his newly wedded wife Indian tennis star Sania Mirza for overspending on their marriage ceremony.

In his petition, Sheikh Hasan Sheraz had urged the court to take action against the star couple for spending millions of rupees on their widely reported marriage.

The petition also raised questions over gifting a gold crown to Sania by federal minister for population and welfare Dr. Firdous Ashiq Awan.

However, the court did not agree to the arguments, observing that the gold crown was given in Hyderabad, India, which was not under its jurisdiction.

The court also observed that there was no proof that the couple had spent five million rupees on the marriage ceremony. (ANI)
