FIR Registered Against Celina Jaitly’s Husband Following Actress’ Complaint

Celina Jaitly Seeks ₹50 Crore, Alleges Years of Abuse in Domestic Violence Case Against Husband Peter Haag

Actress Celina Jaitly’s domestic violence case against her husband, Austrian entrepreneur Peter Haag, has taken a dramatic legal turn, with the Mumbai Police now investigating serious allegations of cruelty, harassment, and intimidation and Celina asking the court for a massive ₹50‑crore compensation over years of alleged abuse and financial control.

FIR, Protection Law, and a Look Out Circular

The Mumbai Police’s Versova Police Station has registered an FIR against Peter Haag under fresh provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, including charges related to cruelty, physical harm, criminal intimidation, and continued harassment (Sections 85, 115(2), 351(2), and 352). The case is being pursued alongside an ongoing petition under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, reinforcing how serious and far‑reaching her claims are.newsable.asianetnews+1

Reports also indicate that a Look Out Circular (LOC) has been issued against Peter Haag for his alleged non‑cooperation in the investigation, raising the profile of the legal battle and tightening the net around him.

The 50‑Crore Petition

In a petition filed last year with the Judicial Magistrate First Class court in Andheri, Celina sought not just protection, but substantial financial remedy. She asked for ₹50 crore in damages, along with additional compensation for loss of income, property alienation, and emotional trauma.

She alleged that Haag had long restricted her from working, used various pretexts to block her career, and deliberately robbed her of financial independence and dignity. The actress said this systematic control turned her from a working mother and independent woman into someone dependent and isolated, even as their lives shifted across continents.

Home Ownership, Emotional Distress, and Abuse

Another key grievance in her petition is that Haag pressured her to transfer ownership of her Mumbai residence into his name at a time when she was already grappling with extreme emotional distress after the loss of her newborn child and both her parents within a short period. The actress claims this was done not out of love or family security, but as a way to strip her of assets and leverage power over her.

Celina also accused him of severe emotional, physical, sexual, verbal, and financial abuse, so intense that she ultimately left their marital home in Austria and returned to India without her children. She sought protection under the violence‑act law, as well as compensation for alleged lost earnings, lost visibility in the film and social space, removal of her property, and issues related to maintenance.

A Marriage That Crossed Continents

Celina married Peter Haag in Mumbai on September 18, 2010, in a private ceremony with close friends and family. The marriage was later registered under Austrian civil law on September 22, and the couple went on to have three sons: Viraaj, Winston, and Arthur.

What began as a cross‑cultural, high‑profile union now forms the backdrop of a painful legal and emotional saga, as the actress and entrepreneur battle for custody, communication rights, and closure.

A Mother’s Grief, Denied Access to Her Children

In a raw and emotional video posted on Instagram, Celina broke down at the grave of her late son, Shamsher, detailing the toll the divorce and custody battles have taken. She shared that she had been in Austria for a divorce hearing, and that despite what she calls “assurances” given before the Austrian court, her children were removed to undisclosed locations and not brought back to the marital home.

She wrote that the only child she was allowed to meet was Shamsher, whose grave she now tends alone. “This is the heartbreaking story of a mother who has done everything for her children from the day they were born,” she said, describing a life uprooted for the sake of her husband’s career

Sacrifices, Asset Drain, and Emotional Toll

In her social media note, Celina listed the sacrifices she claims to have made for the family:

• Leaving India, her parents, and her work.
• Moving from India to Dubai, Singapore, Austria, and then back and forth again to support Haag’s career.
• Raising her children “single‑handedly” while standing by his ambitions, relocations, and business dreams.

Despite all of this, she said she watched her assets being taken away “piece by piece,” while herself enduring constant abuse. “For my dedication to marriage and children, I watched my assets being taken away, piece by piece… beared abuse…” she wrote, suggesting a long‑drawn‑out pattern rather than a single incident.

“Denied Any Communication” With Her Children

Even as she fought for joint custody, Celina alleges that, in practice, she has been cut off from her children. Despite an existing joint custody order from the Austrian Family Court, she claims she is currently “DENIED ANY COMMUNICATION with my 3 children” and feels heartbroken and helpless.

She also accused Haag of repeatedly interfering in her relationship with the kids, including exposing them to selective media narratives that she believes amounts to brainwashing and intimidation, pushing them to say negative things about her a mother who insists she has done nothing but love and sacrifice for them since birth.

A Divorce That Started With a “Gift” Notice

Celina revealed that the formal divorce process began strangely on the pretext of a “gift” for their 15th anniversary. She said she was served a divorce notice by Haag at a local post office in Austria, where he had personally driven her, describing it as a cruel twist on what should have been a positive, celebratory gesture.

She claimed that even after repeated attempts to work out an amicable separation with the children’s welfare in mind, her proposals were met with “unreasonable demands” around her premarital assets and conditions that she believes aim to strip her of freedom and dignity even after the marriage ends.

A Public Appeal for Justice

By sharing her story so openly on court petitions, social media posts, and emotional reels Celina Jaitly is turning a personal trauma into a public record. What unfolded in private homes across India, Dubai, Austria, and back again is now playing out in police stations, magistrates’ courts, and social media timelines, as one woman fights not just for financial justice, but for the right to be seen, heard, and respected as a mother, wife, and individual who once gave up everything for a marriage that no longer exists.

The ₹50‑crore figure, the abuse allegations, and the pain of being denied contact with her children make this more than just a high‑profile divorce it looks set to become a benchmark case on how the law responds to long‑term, cross‑border domestic violence, financial control, and parental alienation.
