Gill was arrested for allegedly attacking cricketer Shaw during an argument over selfies at a suburban hotel in Mumbai. The incident occurred in February, and based on the statement of a hotel staffer where the altercation happened, Shaw objected to Gill’s friend Shobit Thakur taking a video.

“The staffer said that when they were being escorted out, he heard Gill say that ‘dekh ab main uski kya halat karti hoon’ (Now, see what I will do to him). They then left. After half an hour, Shaw and his friends left too. The staffer said that Shaw had not misbehaved with Gill at all on February 15,” police said in the report.
