A Delhi Court today issued notice to singer Yo Yo Honey Singh in a domestic violence case filed by his wife Shalini Talwar.

The Court of Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Tania Singh has passed interim orders in favour of Shalini Talwar Restraining Honey Singh from disposing of his jointly owned property, his wife's Stridhan etc.

Talwar has alleged that Singh "showed no shame in attacking, browbeating, manhandling, cheating, being disloyal and causing irreparable harm to the woman he was supposed to cherish and protect."

The applicant on the other hand has been a dutiful wife and has always discharged all her responsibilities with love and care. 

Talwar has alleged that Singh has been sexually involved with multiple women behind her back and cheated her in  marital life. Moreover he also physically assaulted her on several occasions and caused her immense trauma throughout their marriage.

It has further been alleged that Singh along with his mother and father caused her extreme duress and torture due to which she has suffered immense pain and hurt.   
Talwar has sought a monthly rent of Rs 5 lakh towards a fully furnished accomodation in a reputed part of Delhi.

A prayer has also been made to retrain Singh from alienating/selling/disposing of or creating any third party interest on the matrimonial home of Talwar. She has further stated that since the entire Stridhan is in possesiion of her husband and in-laws she fears misappropriation of the same and has sought a direction to Singh and his family to  hand over the entire Stridhan to her.

Talwar has further sought for a direction to Singh to pay an amount of Rs 20  Crore under Section 22 and 23  of the Domestic violence Act  towards interim compensation for perpetrating domestic violence on her.

The matter is listed for next hearing on August 28.
