City police had taken away the cricketer's passport on April 5 and asked him not to leave the country after a cheating case was registered against him based on a complaint by a Hyderabadi girl Ayesha Siddiqui whom he subsequently divorced after denying that he had married her.

Shoaib's passport is in the possession of a local court.

The over ten-day drama and controversy surrounding Shoaib ended with his marriage to Indian Tennis star Sania Mirza here on April 12.
