Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) pacer Yash Dayal has landed in fresh legal trouble as a second FIR has been registered against him, this time in Jaipur, following similar allegations earlier reported in Ghaziabad. The new complaint accuses the cricketer of sexual assault and exploitation under the false promise of career assistance, with charges filed under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and sections related to assault.

According to the FIR filed at Sanganer Sadar Police Station, the survivor claims she met Dayal while both were pursuing cricket in Jaipur. During an IPL visit to the city, Dayal allegedly befriended her under the guise of mentoring her cricket career. He then allegedly lured her to a hotel room, where she states she was assaulted. The survivor also says she was a minor at the time of the alleged incident.

She further claimed that the cricketer maintained contact with her for two years, emotionally blackmailed her, and continued exploiting her during this period. The FIR mentions that she was manipulated with false assurances about marriage and career opportunities, and that Dayal used her emotionally and physically throughout their association.

This marks the second case against Yash Dayal in recent days, escalating legal pressure on the young pacer and potentially impacting his cricketing future.
