Preity had filed a complaint against Ness alleging that during an IPL match between Kings XI Punjab and Chennai Super Kings on May 30, 2014, he assaulted her.

Preity and Ness were in a relationship for five years and the complaint alleged that he continues to harass her.

According to reports, Zinta’s complaint said that Wadia had abused the team staff over ticket distribution when he saw Zinta was seated in the Garware Pavilion. She further said she changed her seat and sat next to a friend in another enclosure, but Wadia abused her again on the ground in front of her team members.

Gene Goodenough, who married Preity in 2016 also supported the claims made by the actress stating he had  intervened when Wadia abused Zinta.
