In a fresh controversy, cleric Maulana Shahabuddin Razvi, president of the All India Muslim Jamaat, has condemned star Indian pacer Mohammad Shami for allowing his daughter to celebrate Holi, calling it 'illegal' and 'against Shariat'.

In a video statement released late on Saturday, Razvi stated, "She is a small girl … If she plays Holi without understanding (it), then it is not a crime. If she is sensible and still plays Holi, then it will be considered against Shariat."
