The complainant alleged that Adil Durrani assaulted and threatened her after she had insisted on getting married to him.
The Karnataka police on Sunday booked actor Rakhi Sawant’s husband Adil Durrani for allegedly raping a student from Iran, reported the Hindustan Times.
The complainant, a 30-year-old woman, has alleged that she and Durrani were in a live-in relationship for three years. However, she claimed that when she insisted that they get married, he assaulted her.
The woman also alleged that Durrani threatened that he would share her private photos on social media and would send them to her parents in Iran if she forced him to get married.
