Shoaib said he is ready to fight the case in court and proof should be provided by Aysha to prove her allegations.
Amidst escalating controversy between Shoaib Malik and the Siddiquis, who claim that he married their daughter Ayesha in 2002, Indian ace Sania Mirza along with her fiancé -- Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik came out in the open for the first time together and reiterated that their marriage will take place on April 15, irrespective of the controversies. Addressing a joint-press conference outside her residence in Hyderabad the duo said that the marriage will take place on April 15, as there is no reason for a delay.
Meanwhile, Shoaib also said that till the time this controversy come to an end, he will not leave the country. He also dared Ayesha to come in front of the camera and speak the exact same things which she and her family have been claiming.
‘I am here to clear my name, I have earned it’
Shoaib said, “I am here for my marriage and I am here to clear my name. I have earned my name and I am not leaving the country till my name is cleared. The police have taken my passport and mobile phone for investigation. It was the police’s requirement in the case and I have no objection that they have seized whatever matter they need. The police are still investigating. Once they arrive at the truth, then I will decide my future legal course of action. I am cooperating with the police and Indian government. I have earned respect and for that I will do anything to safeguard it.” “Unless all the claims are proven, no one can touch me,” added Shoaib. Challenging the Siddiquis, moments after the latter demanded a public apology and divorce, Shoaib added,
“I am definitely not ready to apologise. Firstly clarify it for me who is Ayesha and who is Maha apa? Ayesha wants cheap publicity. I have appeared in front of the camera and told the truth, why is Ayesha hiding behind the camera? Why can’t she come out and prove herself? Please tell her to come out in the open and find out who is Reema and Mona, the cousins of Ayesha Siddiqui really are?” “The pictures which are being shown across television channels are that with Maha apa, which means elder sister. How can I marry an elder sister?,” added Shoaib.
“I do have photographs sent to me by Siddiquis earlier, but I am not releasing it in the media because that girl in the photograph is married and I don’t want to ruin that girl’s life,” added Shoaib.
Sania backs Shoaib Malik, says she knows the truth
Meanwhile, supporting her would-be husband, Sania Mirza said that she is aware of the truth adding, “Me and my family have known the truth all along. We have been family friends for a long and even before our alliance was fixed we knew the truth. We are definitely going to get married and there is going to be no change of plans on that.” She added, “We all come from a respectable family. We want to clear his name and as an Indian it is my responsibility and our responsibility to let the police investigate and if there is a nikah and the court proves it, Shoaib is ready to do whatever legal procedure is required. There is no question of out-of-court settlement because the version put forth by them is not true.” Sania added that it is painful to be spoken so much about for wrong reasons just ten days before the marriage. She added, “Let the court decide what the truth is. We are not the court. We want to remember these days for a happy reason and not for these reasons.”

The police also seized his passport and mobile phone. He has been asked not to leave the city of Hyderabad until further notice.
Meanwhile, setting terms for Shoaib Malik, the Siddiquis asked the Pakistani cricketer to come out clean and tender a public apology to Ayesha, who claims to have married Shoaib in 2002. The Siddiquis added that if Shoaib divorces Ayesha, they would then drop the case registered against him.
