Earlier this month, a metropolitan court in Andheri instructed a police inquiry into Gill's application seeking an FIR against Shaw for allegedly molesting her at a pub.

A sessions court in Mumbai issued summons to Prithvi Shaw on Tuesday in response to a plea filed by social media influencer Sapna Gill, challenging the orders of a magistrate regarding her complaint against the cricketer.

Earlier this month, a metropolitan court in Andheri ordered a police enquiry based on Gill's plea seeking an FIR against Shaw for allegedly molesting her at a pub.

However, the court rejected another plea from Gill seeking action against the police for failing to register a case based on her complaint against Shaw and his friend.

Dissatisfied with both decisions, the social media influencer filed a review application before a sessions court in Malad.

Gill's review application, filed through advocate Ali Kaashif Khan, argued that the order passed by the metropolitan magistrate on April 3 was irregular and unlawful, claiming that the court had "gravely erred" in issuing it.

On Tuesday, Additional Sessions Judge D G Dhoble issued summons to Shaw.

The court also summoned the airport police in Mumbai, who had not registered a case when Gill first approached them.

The matter is scheduled for the next hearing on June 6.

Gill was arrested in February 2023 along with others in connection with an attack on Shaw following an argument over taking selfies at a suburban hotel.

She is currently out on bail.

After being granted bail in the case, Gill lodged a complaint of molestation against Shaw, his friend Ashish Yadav, and others at the airport police station in Andheri.

Subsequently, she approached the magistrate's court when the police did not file a case against the cricketer.

In her complaint, Gill requested the registration of an FIR under Indian Penal Code sections 354 (molestation), 509 (act intended to insult the modesty of a woman), and 324 (causing hurt by dangerous weapons or means) against Shaw and his friend Ashish Yadav for allegedly assaulting her with a bat.
