UK tabloid claims ‘backing’ from Rubina’s biological mother
A British tabloid has claims the biological mother of Rubina has backed it for exposing her ex-husband's plan.
British tabloid News of the World has claimed that the biological mother of ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ child artiste Rubina Ali Qureshi has “backed” it for “exposing her ex-husband’s plan to sell her star daughter” for 200,000 pounds.
The paper had on Sunday claimed that Rubina’s father Rafiq had tried to sell the nine-year-old to their reporters,who were posing as the agents of a wealthy Arab Sheikh during a sting operation. Rafiq had rubbished the report saying it was a conspiracy to “malign” him.
In a press statement,the tabloid said Khursheed,who is Rubina’s biological mother and Rafiq’s estranged wife,thanked it for “bringing this matter to light.”
“You have come like angels for me and my daughter and saved her from ending up God knows where. Who knows who Rubina would have been sold to,or what would have happened to my child if you hadn’t exposed Rafiq,” she was quoted as telling the paper.
“I was told by my elder daughter Sana several weeks ago that Rafiq was talking about giving my daughter Rubina up for adoption in return for money. He wanted to sell her for as much money as he could get,” Khursheed said.
Khursheed had filed a complaint against Rafiq with the Nirmal Nagar police station in Mumbai after the tabloid report was published.
