India and Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s (RCB) star pacer Yash Dayal is in the headlines nowadays, but not because of his on-field performances. Rather, he is in the news because of the charges from the Ghaziabad woman, of sexually exploiting her by falsely promising marriage. Now, the latest development is unfolding in the Yash Dayal case, as he has approached the High Court (HC), seeking a stay on his arrest. He has even filed an FIR against the Ghaziabad woman, accusing her of stealing an iPhone and lakhs of rupees from him. Today, we will delve deep into this case and see what the latest development is on the case. So let’s start.
What Has Happened in the Yash Dayal Case?
On June 21, 2025, a woman from Ghaziabad accused cricketer Yash Dayal of a five-year relationship with her, with a promise to marry and then being exploited emotionally, physically, and financially. She filed a complaint regarding the same through the Uttar Pradesh (UP) CM’s grievance portal (IGRS). A Ghaziabad woman has also submitted evidence such as chats, call logs, call recordings, video calls, and photographs.
On July 06, 2025, Ghaziabad police officials registered an FIR (First Information Report). The FIR was registered under Section 69 of the BNS (Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita), which covers cases related to sexual intercourse and deceitful means. Ghaziabad police started the process, including potential arrest and medical examination of the complainant.
Dayal Files Counter-Complaint
The cricketer Yash Dayal has now taken a step and has filed a counter-complaint with the police in Prayagraj (Khuldabad). He denied all the complaints made by the Ghaziabad women against him and said it was part of a blackmailing. Dayal also accused the women of borrowing lakhs of rupees under pretenses like medical help, shopping, and more. The cricketer has also said the women stole his laptop and iPhone.
Yash Dayal Speaks for the First Time
Yash Dayal, after the allegations, speaks for the first time. He denied the allegations of establishing a relationship with women under the false promise of marriage. As per the FIR, reported by the Indian Express, the informant had admitted that she was treated like a daughter-in-law by the petitioner’s parents. The petitioner has also said that the change in the attitude of the victim caused a step change, and a decision was made to end the relationship. Petitioner had no intentions to cheat, the FIR report suggests.
Adding to the above report, even if what the woman says is true, it only shows that he didn’t keep his promise, not that he made a fake promise to marry her. Denying the false promise of marriage, Yash Dayal said the friendship or relationship with the victim was mutual. Dayal also said delaying in lodging the FIR weakened the truthfulness and honesty of the case.

He repeatedly made a Physical Relationship With Me – Ghaziabad Women
Earlier, the Ghaziabad woman said that Yash Dayal repeatedly had a physical relationship with her. She also said that the cricketer introduced her to his family, and the family assured her that she would be their daughter-in-law. The woman claimed that, with complete honesty and dedication, she maintained a relationship.
The Ghaziabad woman also told the police that all these things caused her depression, which even needs treatment. She said, “I tried to end my life many times because I couldn’t get out of the mental pain.” The victim also accused Yash Dayal of relationship with other women, which caused her mental breakdown and trauma.
She Saw An Opportunity After Dayal Got an INR 3.2 Crore Contract in IPL 2022
Yash Dayal has also come up with a claim that the women saw an opportunity when the Gujarat Titans (GT) franchise picked him during the IPL (Indian Premier League) 2022 season. The franchise signed Yash Dayal for INR 3.2 crore for the season. After that, Dayal started getting attention and became more famous.
Dayal also said he was afraid of the woman’s threats to unblock her on WhatsApp or to try to cut off contact with her. She continues to send the photographs of attempting a suicide, said Yash Dayal.
