Actor and producer Arbaaz Khan has filed a defamation case in a civil court in Mumbai after defamatory claims were made in posts and online videos, alleging his involvement in the recent deaths of actor Sushant Singh Rajput and his manager Disha Salian.
The Sushant Singh Rajput death is currently being investigated by three central agencies - Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Enforcement Directorate (ED) and Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB).
On September 28, the court had asked defendants Vibhor Anand and Sakshi Bhandari, and unknown defendants - namely John Doe / Ashok Kumar - to withdraw, recall or take down defamatory content (described in the suit and any other defamatory content ) published directly or indirectly by any of them. This content also included all posts, messages, tweets, videos, interviews, communications and similar correspondence to the defamatory content in relation to Arbaaz Khan or his family members on all public domains and social media platforms including Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and other mediums and bot.
Arbaaz Khan filed a defamation case against certain known as well unknown social media users who are making defamatory allegations in posts and online videos, alleging his involvement in the recent unfortunate deaths of Disha Salian and Sushant Singh Rajput which are currently under investigation.
The erroneous portrayal in the posts included saying that the actor-producer had been arrested and taken into unofficial custody of CBI.
The Order was passed by Justice V.V. Vidwans. Counsel Pradeep Gandhy instructed by DSK Legal represented Arbaaz Khan.
