Zarina Wahab and Sooraj Pancholi

Sooraj Pancholi‘s mother Zarina Wahab has shot back at allegations made against her son by the CBI. In a statement to Hindustan Times, the actress maintains that Sooraj is being targeted. Here are excerpts from her comments to the publication –

The entire charge sheet is not out yet. How dare anyone write anything about Sooraj without knowing the content. We will take action against people who are giving incorrect news. We will only be able to talk about our plan of action once the complete charge sheet is out. I know who is trying to spread false rumours. The CBI has ruled out the possibility of a murder.

Replying to the details of the alleged abortion Sooraj was involved in, Zarina said:

Who is giving all these details? Has the CBI or the court said this? Once she got to know that Sooraj is free from the murder charge, she started telling stories.

When asked who the ‘she’ she is referring to is, Zarina responded:

I cannot take any names, but I know she is doing this. How much can she try to defame my son?

In a statement to Times of India, Zarina further added:

First she (Jiah’s mom Rabiya Khan) said it was suicide. Then she said she does not know what it is. Now the CBI says, it is a case of suicide. I don’t know the sort of interviews that have been printed. I don’t know that he went to the toilet and took out the baby, this even the gynaec doesn’t do. Especially the allegations she is levelling. What can I say? I have faith in God. It is not a crime to love somebody and if you want to break out of a relationship, then that also isn’t wrong.
