In a major off-field storm, former Pakistan all-rounder Imad Wasim is facing grave allegations from his ex-wife, Sannia Ashfaq, just days after announcing his second marriage to influencer and lawyer Nyla Raja. The controversy has shifted from social media call-outs to a direct appeal to the highest levels of Pakistani authority.
Explosive Allegations & “Leaked” Chats
Sannia Ashfaq recently shared what she claims are WhatsApp screenshots of exchanges with the cricketer during her pregnancy. She alleges that when she reached out for support, Wasim responded by threatening legal action and a harassment case against her.
These latest posts follow a series of even more serious accusations:
- Forced Abortion: Ashfaq claims Wasim forced her to undergo an abortion in Lahore in December 2023, even going as far as to label him a “murderer” in her posts.
- Infidelity: She has publicly called Nyla Raja a “homewrecker” and accused Wasim of cheating on her for a significant period before their divorce in December 2025.
- Neglect: Ashfaq alleges that Wasim has abandoned his responsibilities toward their three children, the youngest of whom is only seven months old.
Appeals for Intervention
In a bid for accountability, Sannia has tagged and appealed to several high-profile figures and organizations:
- Mohsin Naqvi: As the Chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and Pakistan’s Interior Minister, Naqvi has been urged to investigate Wasim’s conduct.
- Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif: Sannia has requested the PM’s office to ensure a transparent investigation into the alleged mistreatment.
- Islamabad United: She has called for a boycott of Wasim’s PSL franchise, criticizing them for supporting him despite the allegations.
Imad Wasim’s Stance
While Wasim has not directly addressed the specific “murder” or “abortion” claims in detail, he released a statement following his second marriage. He described his first marriage as one of the “hardest chapters” of his life and expressed regret over “staying longer than he should have.” He maintained that his commitment to his children remains his priority but claimed he has been denied access to them despite his efforts.
