Allegations of Forced Medication and House Arrest
Faissal detailed disturbing allegations spanning back to 2005–2008, stating, “During the period 2005 to 2007, I was subjected to unwanted forced medication.
During the period 2005 to 2006, I was confined to home, akin to house-arrest against my wishes by some family members for their personal interests.
In October, 2007, when I was being forced to give up my signatory rights by my family members, I left home, where upon my mother Zeenat Tahir Hussain and my elder sister, Nikhat Hegde made false allegations against me that I was suffering from paranoid Schizophrenia, and that I was a danger to the society at large. The court case took about five months for hearing and disposal, and in February, 2008, the court passed final judgment in my favour, and rejected the allegations and contentions made by my family members, which is a matter of record.”
Faissal accused family members of once again conspiring against him by portraying him as “misleading” in recent public statements. “My family members have been responsible for jeopardising my career and creating havoc in my personal and professional Life since the Year 2005,” he said.
