Says a source close to the actress, "Daljeet found out that he was cheating on her and when she confronted him, he tried to strangulate her. He had been beating her up regularly, and one day she decided she had had enough. She went to the police, but they were not registering an FIR as Shaleen is well connected.
But now a case has been registered. She has been going to the court every day, but the inspector doesn't turn up for the hearing.
The actor has been charged under various IPC Sections, including 307 (attempt to murder), adds her friend on the condition of anonymity. Shaleen has not been arrested as the court has granted him ad interim release and the police have not filed their response yet.
Daljeet says, "I am hopeful that I will get justice. I have gone through a lot in the past few months."
