Ayesha’s done this to me, too!

TNN , Apr 12, 2010, 10.43am IST

Chicago-based businessman Feroze Jalal says Ayesha Siddiqui is no pained wife, and that she tried to con him the same way she ‘framed’ Shoaib Malik.

Hyderabad is my hometown —which I will soon be visiting, probably in June. I’m currently settled in Chicago with my wife. When I read the news about Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik and his alleged link up with the Hyderabad based-Ayesha Siddiqui, what immediately struck me was the name of the woman — since I’ve known her, and had a similar experience, many years back. And in light of that experience, I feel that Ayesha may well have framed Shoaib. What has happened with Shoaib is very sad, and I can understand it better than most because I have gone through similar trauma, because of what Ayesha had done with me a few years back.

In 1997, while I was in Jeddah, I started receiving some crank calls on my phone. I found out that it was my ex-girlfriend’s friend who was making the calls. I then got to know her name —Ayesha Siddiqui. Yes, the same Ayesha who supposedly has just ‘divorced’ Shoaib Malik.

I was only 20 years old at that time. I would keep getting these crank calls everyday. Finally, I decided to speak to her. She introduced herself as Ayesha Siddiqui. Slowly, we both started talking. Sometimes, we’d talk over the phone for hours and hours. She has a typical Pakistani accent. One day, I asked her if she would meet me, and she readily agreed. We decided to meet at a super mall in Jeddah. When I reached the mall and waited for her, a slim, beautiful girl walked up to me and introduced herself, saying, ‘Hi, I’m Ayesha.” We sat and chatted for some time, but after she left, I realised that her voice didn’t sound the same as it did on the phone. I had my doubts. I therefore got in touch with one of my friends, who was Ayesha’s neighbour. His description of Ayesha was very different from what the girl I had met looked like, and he also told me that the girl who had come to meet me at the mall was not Ayesha, but a friend of hers. The next time that I asked Ayesha to meet me, she didn’t turn up at all.

On the phone, Ayesha would cry, and ask me to marry her all the time, and I would refuse. She was crazy and madly in love with me, or so I thought. I finally got irritated of all this and stopped attending her calls. Our relationship lasted only for about six months.

Finally, later, I got to know about Ayesha’s real identity, her family, etc, through a common friend. I got to know that she had been calling other boys too, and talking to them the same way, and trying to somehow force them to marry her. In fact, one of my close friends, whom I’ll just call K (since his family doesn't know about all this), who was at that time staying in Hyderabad, had started receiving similar crank calls from Ayesha. When I told K about Ayesha, he also gave up talking to her. He is now, fortunately, happily married and settled in Australia.

I strongly feel that Ayesha needs proper medication. She seems normal to speak to at first, but she is not quite a ‘normal’ personality. I think she is just looking for fame and money. What appears stranger is that her parents seem to be supporting her in all this. She has probably trapped Shoaib and framed him.

And yes, I’m saying this all on record, as my wife is fully aware of this episode.

Investigators Focus on Tupolev 154 Jetliner

By IRA IOSEBASHVILI and DANIEL MICHAELS

Investigators seeking the cause of a plane crash that killed Polish President Lech Kasczinski, his wife and a delegation including dozens of high-level officials on Saturday are likely to focus on both the Tupolev 154 jetliner and the pilots' actions.

The Russian-made plane, although 20 years old, had been overhauled in December at a Russian aviation facility and had flown relatively few hours.

The TU-154, which crashed outside Smolensk, Russia, was on its fourth attempt to land amid heavy fog. Several major crashes over recent years have occurred when pilots lost full awareness of their situation after repeated attempts to land, so investigators will seek to understand why the crew tried bring the plane down in such unfavorable conditions.

Russian special services secured the area after a Polish government plane crashed near the airport in

Russian media reported that the airplane's pilot ignored warnings to abort his landing outside of Smolensk and land instead in Minsk or Moscow. The jet crashed about a kilometer short of the runway at the Smolensk-Severnyi military airport, shortly before 11 a.m. Moscow time.

The airport lacks modern radio-navigation systems that help guide planes in poor visibility, according to the Polish newspaper Rzeczpospolita.

Polish media reported Saturday that the crew had reported problems before trying to land, although the reports weren't officially confirmed. If correct, the issue is likely to become central to the investigation.

The Tupolev was operated by the Polish Air Force. LOT Polish Airlines, the country's state-owned commercial carrier, replaced all its Soviet-made jetliners – including TU-154s – in the 1990s.

During the presidential plane's overhaul in December, its engines underwent thorough maintenance, and the craft's interior was completely refitted and modernized, said Alexei Gusev, director of Aviakor, an aircraft plant outside of Samara.

"The plane flew fine, there were no complaints about it," Mr. Gusev said. "I remember the pilots who test-flew it after the overhaul and there were happy with its performance."

The aircraft had logged roughly 5000 hours of flying time in around 1800 flights, Mr. Gusev said. "This is not a lot at all for this airplane. As a rule, airplanes serving top officials do not see many hours of usage," he said.

Designed Soviet engineers and first flown in 1968, the TU-154 has seen heavy use in Russia and other former Soviet countries. More than 920 of the three-engine plane have been built, although production slowed sharply after the end of the Soviet Union due to economic problems there and the plane's high operating costs. Its engines consume significantly more fuel than similar-sized Western-built jetliners and require far more maintenance.

Still, the aircraft is extremely hardy. It is designed to operate off of gravel and packed earth air fields and resist the extreme cold often found in Russia's northern climes. Aeroflot, Russia's state airline, announced the retirement of its TU-154 fleet at the start of this year.

The airplane had also served Poland's two previous presidents, Lech Walesa and Aleksander Kwasniewski. In 2008, the airplane was delayed in Ulan Bator airport for two days when its steering mechanism broke down.

Last June, an Iranian TU-154 crashed in the country's northwest, killing all 168 people on board. A Russian TU-154 also went down near Donetsk, Ukraine in August 2006, killing 170.

Poland has suffered several air crashes involving top officials and Soviet-built aircraft, which the country was forced to use until breaking free of Soviet domination in 1989. In 2003, then-prime minister Leszek Miller was seriously injured when his Russian Mi-8 helicopter crashed.

In March 1980, a Soviet-built Ilyushin-62 passenger jet operated by LOT and flying from New York crashed on landing in Warsaw, killing all 87 people onboard.

And in an accident many Poles are likely to see as a parallel to Saturday's crash, Poland's prime minister-in-exile and leader of Western-oriented Polish forces in World War II, General Wladyslaw Sikorski – a figure admired by followers of late President Kaczynski – died when his U.S.-made B-24 crashed into the Mediterranean Sea on a flight from Gibraltar to London.
