Indian Minister Urges Cricketers to Report Movements After Alleged Molestation of Australian Players

Bhopal, India – October 26, 2025 – Following an incident in Indore where two Australian women cricketers were allegedly stalked and molested, Madhya Pradesh Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya is advising cricketers to inform local authorities or their team security about their movements when venturing out.

The incident occurred on Thursday, October 23, when the two players were walking to a cafe near the Holkar cricket stadium. According to police, Aqueel Khan, 29, allegedly stalked and inappropriately touched the players. Khan was arrested on Thursday night after an extensive police operation and has been remanded to 14 days of judicial custody. Police records indicate that Khan has a history of criminal offenses, including violations of the Arms Act and the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act.

“Players should keep the local administration or their security [officials] informed when they are going out,” stated Minister Vijayvargiya, who is also a BJP MLA from Indore. He emphasized the immense popularity of cricket players in India and the need for both players and authorities to be vigilant. “This incident is a lesson for both us and the players,” he added.

Police report that Khan attempted to evade arrest and sustained injuries while fleeing, including fractures. A motorcycle used by Khan during the alleged stalking, which lacked a number plate, was seized.
