As per sources, Ness Wadia, businessman and co-owner of Kings XI Punjab, has denied the allegations of molestation by ex-girl friend, Preity Zinta. Expressing shock and disbelief Wadia said, “I am shocked at the complaint and the allegations made against me are totally false and baseless. It was not possible for me to molest or manhandle the actress as she is always surrounded by bouncers. We had differences for a while now over various issues, but had no idea that Zinta would have filed a police case against me.”

The police have said in a statement that, it will take statements from both Preity and Ness separately after viewing the videos of the alleged incident from the tapes of the May 30th IPL match.
