Sexual Assault Scandal

In 2016, reportedly, after the couple split and Rehnuma started living separately from her husband, she was allegedly kidnapped and forced into prostitution again in 2019. ^[1]Newsbytes In 2021, reports emerged stating that Rehnuma filed a complaint at the Santacruz Police Station in Mumbai, and in her application dated 24 September 2021, Bhati accused her husband of forcing her into having sexual relations with a man in 2011-2012. She added in the application that Riyaz coerced her to have sex with several of his business associates and other “high-profile” people including prominent cricketers like Hardik Pandya and Munaf Patel. She also named Indian National Congress politician Rajeev Shukla, who has also served as the Vice President of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). Another name, Prithviraj Kothari, the MD of RSBL, has also been mentioned in the complaint.
