According to PTI, Celina, the mother of three boys, sought a monthly maintenance amounting to Rs 10 lakh and a compensation payment of Rs 50 crore from her husband.
In the plea, Celina claimed she has "suffered severe emotional, physical, sexual and verbal abuse by her husband because of which she was forced to flee her home in Austria and return to India."

"The respondent (Haag) is a narcissistic, self-absorbed individual. He has a short temper and alcoholic tendencies, which have consistently caused the applicant (Jaitly) stress," the former Miss India stated in her plea.

Her children are currently living with their father in Austria.
The plea was heard on Tuesday (November 25) before judicial magistrate S C Tadye, who issued a notice to Haag. The matter is scheduled for further hearing on December 12.
