Nawazuddin Siddiqui on assault case: ‘It was all pre-planned’

Actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who was booked for allegedly assaulting a young woman in his housing society, today claimed the incident was “pre-planned” and could have been a publicity stunt. An FIR was registered against the actor earlier this month for allegedly assaulting a woman over a parking dispute in their housing society in suburban Andheri. Siddiqui said he did not know the complainant as she is not the resident of the society. “The notice (apparently issued by society) that was being shown on television was not signed. I did not receive any such notice,” he said.
