Celina Jaitly Urges Media to Shield Her Children as Domestic Violence Case Proceeds in Mumbai

The actor has filed domestic violence divorce proceedings in Mumbai seeking ₹50 crores under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act.

Overview

  • On Friday, Jaitly asked news outlets not to use her children's photographs in coverage of her legal dispute, calling herself a mother with a broken heart.
  • She has moved the Judicial Magistrate First Class court in Andheri, alleging domestic cruelty by husband Peter Haag and seeking ₹50 crores along with other reliefs.
  • Her filings and public statements accuse Haag of physical, emotional, sexual and financial abuse during the marriage, including reports of demeaning language and demands for expensive gifts.
  • In a post on X on Thursday, she vowed to keep fighting for her dignity, identified Karanjawala & Co as her legal counsel, and said the case is sub judice with queries to be directed to her lawyers.
  • Coverage cites her claim that she fled their home in Austria and returned to India on October 11 without the children, creating cross‑border custody sensitivities, and no court rulings have been reported.
