The former Rajasthan Royals (RR) cricketer, KC Cariappa, has reportedly filed a police complaint against his ex-girlfriend, as reported by the Times of India. KC Cariappa took this step, seeking police intervention and accusing her of threatening to harm his cricket career.

The complaint states that she reportedly issued warnings to Cariappa’s family members, including his father, mother, and elder brother. This development comes almost a year after the woman had previously filed a complaint against the 29-year-old cricketer.

Earlier, on December 31, 2022, Cariappa’s ex-girlfriend complained KC Cariappa with Bagalagunte police. She accused the Karnataka-born cricketer of impregnating her and administering abortion pills against her will in September.

On December 22, Cariappa informed the Bagalagunte police that he had developed a relationship with a woman from Kodagu. He said that he had to terminate the relationship due to her purported involvement in drug use, alcohol consumption, and promiscuity.

The mystery spinner claimed she threatened to end his cricket career by implicating him in her suicide note. She, unaware of the report, expressed her intention to fight back and filed a counter-complaint against Cariappa at the RT Nagar police station on Saturday.

Released from his contract in 2016, Cariappa was bought by Kings XI Punjab for 80 lakhs. He went unsold in the 2019 IPL auction, but KKR signed him as an injury replacement. Unfortunately, he played just one game in the 2019 edition of the tournament.

Cariappa was acquired by the Rajasthan Royals for 20 lakh INR in the IPL 2021 auction. The spinner didn’t play for the inaugural champions during his time with the franchise. He was released by RR before the IPL 2024 Auction.
