AN UPDATE – Indian Police finally concluded Wednesday that Rafiq Qureshi, father of “Slumdog Millionaire” star Rubina Ali did not try to sell her daughter for $300,000.

“So far there is no evidence of any offense, hence there is no registration of complaint and no arrest,” Police Senior Officer Nisar Tamboli said.

Qureshi has been arrested and quizzed for several hours by police in Mumbai few days ago, amid claims from Rubina’s mother Khurshida that she knew about the sale.

Reuters also reported that” a charitable trust from Qatar offered to pay for Rubina’s education, which is already being taken care off by the producers of the film.

The family is willing to accept any help, although Rubina’s education was already taken care off.
