Boxer Saweety Boora embroiled in controversy over assault on husband Deepak Hooda
Former world champion boxer Saweety Boora has been caught in a controversy after a video surfaced showing her assaulting her husband, Deepak Hooda, a former Indian Kabaddi team player, inside the women’s police station in Hisar. The incident occurred on March 15 when the police had asked both of them to join the investigation regarding their complaint.
The one-and-a-half-minute-long video shows Boora grabbing Hooda by the throat and shaking him aggressively in the presence of police officials and others inside the station. Boora appears visibly agitated, pointing fingers and speaking loudly as bystanders try to separate her from Hooda.
Following the incident, the police registered a case of assault against Boora. However, she denied any assault and alleged police bias in favour of Hooda during a press conference held the previous day.
The altercation led to Hooda filing a complaint at the Sadar police station on March 16, resulting in an FIR being registered against Boora, her father, and her maternal uncle for assault and intimidation.
The couple’s marital issues began when Boora filed a complaint with the Hisar police against her husband three weeks ago. Hooda also filed a complaint against her in Rohtak police, and both cases are currently under investigation.
Notably, Hooda had contested the last Haryana Assembly election from Maham but lost. Boora had also demanded a ticket but was denied by BJP.
