Feroze Khan denies abuse allegations, vows legal action against perpetrators of ‘rumours’

Medical and MLO reports documenting bruises and other wounds were submitted to a family court by the actor's ex-wife Aliza Sultan and picked up by social media.
26 Oct, 2022

Actor Feroze Khan released a statement denying all abuse allegations levied against him a day after fellow celebrities and social media rallied behind his ex-wife, Aliza Sultan. Calling them false, he said as a believer of human rights, he has “never knowingly hurt another human being”.

On Tuesday, he addressed the matter on Instagram and wrote, “I, Feroze Khan vehemently deny any and baseless, malicious and untruthful allegations which have been levelled against me and are circulating on the social media rumour mill. These allegations have no basis in truth or reality. I fully intend to institute legal proceedings against the perpetrators of these actions and I have instructed my legal team accordingly.”

The Aye Musht-e-Khaak actor added that he is a law-abiding citizen who has not inflicted pain on anyone. “I would categorically like to state that I have always followed the law in its true letter and spirit, and have never knowingly hurt another human being. I very strongly believe in all human rights of every human inhabiting planet earth.”

His statement came after photos of his former wife Sultan with bruised marks as a result of assault started circulating on social media along with emergency room reports. Those were among the documents submitted to a District East Family Court as well as a report from the Accident and Emergency Department at Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre documenting a complaint of assault in November 2020, mentioning “blunt injuries on both arms, [the] back, chest and face”. A “minor nosebleed” was also recorded. The provisional diagnosis read that it was an “assault”. Sultan was prescribed a Panadol by the doctor after having her face examined via X-ray.

Along with the medical report, she submitted a medico-legal officer report from November 16, 2020 from the Darakhshan Police Station. It read that she was injured during a “personal fight” and treated at JPMC.

The entertainment industry has rallied behind Sultan en masse, offering their full support. Stars such as Mariyam Nafees, Asim Azhar, Osman Khalid Butt, Mansha Pasha, Shae Gill, Ushna Shah, Minal and Aiman Khan and Usman Mukhtar all took to social media to send her love and support.

The family court is hearing two cases — one filed by Khan for custody of their two children and another filed by Sultan for maintenance money for the children. The next hearing of the case is on November 1.

The former couple announced their intention to divorce last month, adding that they are in the middle of court proceedings discussing custody and visitation rights for their two children. Sultan had said she was physically and psychologically abused by her former partner during their marriage. Khan refused to comment.

@Nads Don't be fooled by appearances or TV dramas. One does not need to have under eye circles etc to be suffering abuse. Her pictures could also have been taken during their happier moments together. Nobody cries all the time.

Divorce is always given in utmost harassment already faced, it can never be given in love for humanity, not to talk about one's better half and children?

As you read between the lines and look at the collection of bruising pictures, and if you have the rudiments of forensic knowledge you can figure that she is setting him up for long term 'milking'. But the clincher, if one was needed, was that the medics gave her Panadol and sent her home. They too had figured out that it was a ruse, that no real damage was done. And given that the female skin is far more fragile than the male, the bruising could very well be from throes of passion. Note the three finger mark on the arm, that is classic tell tale of a passionate tryst gone wild..!

@El Cid Wow, looks like we have a forensic expert here. The pictures were submitted in court as evidence genius. You examining them from your couch doesn't negate their existence. "And given that the female skin is far more fragile than the male, the bruising could very well be from throes of passion. Note the three finger mark on the arm, that is classic tell tale of a passionate tryst gone wild..!" -- Is there any point in responding to a creepy comment like this?

@x "Is there any point in responding to a creepy comment like this?" And yet you are here, responding. Must have hit you in the gut, raised all kinds of doubt about your poor reasoning and faulty logic "The pictures were submitted in court as evidence genius." Any thing/item submitted to a court of law is alleged evidence, not evidence per se. Please note the critical differece. Further, your sarcastic use of genius for me notwithstanding, it reflects on your own very lack of it. "You examining them from your couch doesn't negate their existence." What evidence, I have alread put doubt on it and given an alternative explanation for it. Think over it, and have a nice day!

Let the courts decide if there was domestic violence. I know a lot of folks are supporting Feroze's wife. However, they are being judgemental without seeing any solid proof. Pictures do jot tell the whole story. They just show there are bruises, not what happened that resulted in such bruises. I am not supporting either one of these people. I will once, and if I come across the actual facts.
