Youth held for 'threatening' Sania Mirza

A youth was arrested for allegedly making threatening calls to tennis star Sania Mirza and creating nuisance at her residence here demanding to cancel her engagement, police said on Wednesday.


Mohammed Ashraf, (28) a civil engineering student, who claimed to be in love with Sania, was allegedly sending messages and making threatening calls to Sania's mobile phone asking her to stop her engagement, Banjara Hills police said quoting a complaint lodged by Sania's father Imran Mirza.


Ashraf went to Sania's house at Banjara Hills here last night and reportedly had an argument with her father asking him to cancel Sania's engagement stating that he was in love with Sania, a senior police officer said.


"We had already put up a police picket at Sania's house after her father's complaint. Ashraf was arrested after he created nuisance at their house," he said.

Ashraf was booked under various sections of IPC and was being produced before a court on Wednesday, the police officer said.

Sania Mirza's engagement is scheduled on July 10 here with Mohd Sohrab Mirza.
