Hyderabad: Another man, this time from Uttar Pradesh, has found himself behind bars for creating a nuisance at tennis star Sania Mirza's house on the eve of her engagement.

Hyderabad police on Thursday picked up 24-year-old Arvind Singh Yadav when he reached Sania Mirza's house in Banjara Hills to express his desire to marry India's top woman tennis player.

A day after a man from Kerala was arrested for creating a scene at Sania's house, the man from Uttar Pradesh allegedly tried to barge into her house. Claiming that he was in love with the tennis star, he wanted to meet her.

Sania Mirza's father Imran Mirza complained to the police, who later arrested Yadav. The man, however, told police that he was only a fan of the tennis star and wanted to meet her but her family lodged a complaint due to some misunderstanding. Police were questioning him.

The incident took place a day after Mohammed Arshad, 28, was arrested at her house for trying to barge in. The man from Mallapuram district of Kerala said he wanted Sania's father to cancel her engagement as he was in love with her. Arshad, an engineering college dropout, told police that he fell in love with Sania after watching her play in Bangalore two years ago.

Police booked Arshad under various sections of Indian Penal Code for trespass, criminal intimidation and an act intended to insult modesty of a woman. A city court sent Arshad to jail till July 22.

Though police had also picked up Arshad's friend D Mohanty, he was later released as he told police he had no knowledge of Arshad's mischief.

Sania's engagement is scheduled on Friday with Sohrab Mirza, the son of a local businessman.
