Overview

• On August 16, Faissal Khan issued a public notice cutting all familial and estate ties and said he will neither live at Aamir Khan’s home nor accept maintenance.
• At a Mumbai press conference on August 18, he alleged relatives confined him in 2005–2007, forced medication on him, and pressured him in 2002–2003 to marry his mother’s first cousin.
• He reiterated a long-circulating tabloid claim that Aamir Khan had a child out of wedlock with British journalist Jessica Hines, a claim Aamir has not publicly acknowledged.
• A collective statement from Aamir Khan’s family earlier in August called Faissal’s portrayal hurtful and misleading and said decisions about his care were made with medical professionals.
• Faissal cites a 2008 court ruling he says rejected schizophrenia allegations against him and he says he will file a writ petition within the next month.
