World Cup 2023 presenter Zainab Abbas has left India after an Indian lawyer filed a complaint against her over alleged “anti-Hindu” statements.
A spokesperson for the International Cricket Council (ICC) confirmed that the presenter had left the country due to “personal reasons” and dismissed deportation reports.
An Indian lawyer had reportedly approached the police for the registration of a complaint against Zainab for allegedly issuing statements against India and Hinduism.
Abbas was announced as one of the presenters for this year’s World Cup earlier this month. The presenter was really excited about the opportunity to travel to India when the announcement was made.
It is important to note that India has yet to grant visas to Pakistani fans and journalists despite many reminders by the Pakistan Cricket Board.
