They have had nothing to do with our family matters for the last three years. We are completely unaware of their activities or associations," Shoaib said, expressing shock over their names being drawn into the case.Shoaib added that the family has been living a peaceful life in Lucknow and has had minimal contact with Shaheen and Pervez."They had separated long ago and were living elsewhere. We are cooperating with authorities and have faith in the investigation," he said, appealing to the media and public not to jump to conclusions.Neighbours in the locality also supported Shoaib's statement, describing the family as quiet and law-abiding. One neighbour told ANI, "We have known Shoaib's family for many years. They are decent people and not involved in any illegal activity. The entire neighbourhood was shocked to hear about the allegations."The family has urged that a fair and impartial investigation be conducted to uncover the truth and prevent any defamation of innocent individuals.
