Expressing concern over the matter Nawaz's estranged wife Aaliya Siddiqui wrote on Twitter: "Children need care & support. No one should take advantage of any helpless child. I am happy to know that every person who has information of child abuse is punished for failing to report the offence."
"Non-reporting of cases to protect image of person or family is a bigger crime," she added.
Meanwhile, Aaliya has also claimed that Nawazuddin's family had subjected her to physical and emotional abuse during her marriage.
