Former cricketer's neighbours allege she beat them with a bamboo on his instigation
The episode of Vinod Kambli's tryst with truth on a reality show does not seem to have ended.
Residents of Mount Nirmala Co-op Housing Society, Bandra, lodged a complaint against his maid last night at the Bandra police station for assaulting the secretary of the society and a few other residents.
Residents also claim that the Kamblis had instigated her to attack them.
Bamboo attack
Francis Forte (17), a resident said, "I saw the Kamblis' maid assaulting the secretary with a bamboo stick while he was on his way home.
I rushed to help him, but she assaulted me and my mother." Forte alleged that the maid had scratched his neck in the scuffle.

Dominic Fernandes (53), the secretary, alleged that the Kamblis were behind the maid's actions.
Society members said that the Kamblis rented a flat on the second floor of G Block nearly six months back and since then, have caused nothing but trouble.

"They wash their car in the compound, litter and let their Rottweiler roam freely. The dog has even bitten a few residents.
I have warned them several times," said Fernandes. The society has also written to the flat owner to take action against them.
Society members also alleged that the Kamblis are taking advantage of their celebrity status.
"Whenever there is an issue, they claim they know people in important posts and we won't be able to do anything against them," said Fernandes.
