Vipraj Nigam found himself in a controversy after a user on X claimed that the UP based cricketer first befriended her and made fake promises of marriage and then threatened her. “UP’s IPL player Vipraj Purohit is a thug. This player knows how to toy with girls’ lives. Vipraj first befriended a woman named Richa, then lured her with promises of marriage, and then had physical relations with her at the Lemon Tree hotel in Noida, followed by assault," the viral post on X stated.
“He (Vipraj) kept repeatedly wronging the girl and threatening her and even forced her at gunpoint to make a video saying that the girl wouldn’t tarnish his image, wouldn’t create a scene by crying and complaining, and would settle the matter,” the woman further said on her X post as quoted in News18.
