Niharika Lal (BOMBAY TIMES; August 29, 2021)

On Saturday, Yo Yo Honey Singh missed the hearing for the domestic violence case filed against him by his wife Shalini Talwar. His lawyer cited medical reasons for the rapper’s absence at Delhi’s Tis Hazari court. However, no medical records were submitted and the court has asked Singh to submit his medical and tax records.

A source told us, “The judge said that no one is above the law and has asked him to appear before the court on September 3, which is the next hearing date.”

Shalini has filed a case under Section 12 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, seeking protection and other reliefs. On August 3, the Tis Hazari Court passed an interim order in favour of Shalini, restraining Singh from disposing of his jointly owned property, his wife’s stridhan, etc.
