In a fresh controversy, cleric Maulana Shahabuddin Razvi, president of the All India Muslim Jamaat, has condemned star Indian pacer Mohammad Shami for allowing his daughter to celebrate Holi, calling it `illegal` and `against Shariat`.

In a video statement released late on Saturday, Razvi stated, "She is a small girl … If she plays Holi without understanding (it), then it is not a crime. If she is sensible and still plays Holi, then it will be considered against Shariat."
