Delhi Capitals Star Abishek Porel Under Investigation… Complaint Alleges ‘False Promise of Marriage’, Cricketer Denies Charges
Police have launched an investigation after a woman filed a complaint against Bengal and Delhi Capitals wicketkeeper-batter Abishek Porel, alleging misconduct, assault, and intimidation.
A fresh controversy has emerged in Indian cricket after a police complaint was filed against Abishek Porel, the Bengal and Delhi Capitals wicketkeeper-batter, over allegations made by a woman from West Bengal’s Hooghly district.
According to police officials, the complaint was lodged at Mogra Police Station by the woman and her mother on Tuesday. The complainant has alleged that Porel entered into a relationship with her under a false promise of marriage and later subjected her to assault and criminal intimidation.
Following the filing of the complaint, authorities confirmed that an investigation has been initiated to examine the allegations and gather relevant evidence. Police officials have stated that the matter is currently under investigation and that further action will depend on the findings of the inquiry.

Meanwhile, Abishek Porel has strongly denied all accusations levelled against him. The cricketer has maintained that the allegations are false and has rejected the claims made in the complaint.
Porel is regarded as one of the emerging talents in Indian cricket and has represented Bengal in domestic competitions. He has also been associated with the Delhi Capitals franchise in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and has previously travelled with India A squads on overseas tours, including visits to the United Kingdom and Australia.
The development has drawn significant attention from both cricket followers and legal observers, given Porel’s growing profile in Indian cricket. However, officials have stressed that the investigation is at an early stage and that all allegations remain subject to verification.
Legal experts often point out that complaints of this nature require a thorough and impartial investigation to establish the facts. At present, no conclusions have been reached by law enforcement authorities, and the case remains under review.

As the inquiry progresses, police are expected to record statements, examine available evidence, and follow due legal procedures before determining the next course of action.
The incident has once again highlighted how off-field controversies involving public figures can quickly attract national attention. For now, the focus remains on the ongoing investigation and the legal process that will follow.
