Asad Rauf admits pictures with Indian model real, but denies relationship
MUMBAI:


Pakistani cricketer-turned-umpire Asad Rauf, who has been accused of sexually exploiting Indian model-starlet Leena Kapoor,

admitted that pictures with her are real, but denied having any relationship with her.
In an interview to a Pakistani paper, Rauf said that Kapoor forced him into recommending her for TV show ‘Bigg Boss‘ as he had good Bollywood connections. Rauf then decided to end his friendship with the starlet.
But Kapoor, who has filed a case against Rauf with Mumbai police, said that he was in touch with her till May this year. She said that Rauf even visited her at her Versova residence. She said Rauf met her in Sri Lanka last year.
Speaking to TOI, Kapoor said: “I was on holiday with my friend. Rauf saw me at a pub where we got introduced and he had been in touch with me since then. He has even stayed over at my place and now he denies his relationship.”
Rauf has been coming to India for several cricket tournaments, including the Indian Premier League, during which Kapoor alleges they had a relationship.
The 21-year-old model has filed a written complaint with deputy commissioner of police (Zone 6) Pratap Dighavkar, in which she claims she had a six-month affair with the 56-year-old umpire, which was prolonged only because he promised that they would soon get married.
