He also disclosed that Dalljiet left their home in Kenya with their son Jaydon and returned to India because she couldn't adjust to the lifestyle in Kenya, where she didn't receive the same attention she was used to in India.

She said, "You had three days in India after knowing about the FIR. Which you have just admitted you knew about. If the rubbish you have printed out right now was true, you would have gone to the police station and told your side to them instead of sending it out to your PR. After running away from India while the police kept telling you to visit them again and again. You PR stories are not going to give me justice and a person like you deserves to be punished."
