Supreme Court grants Ranveer Allahbadia interim protection from arrest in two cases registered against him. Allahbadia is restricted from doing new shows for the time being.
Coming down heavily on Youtuber Ranveer Allahbadia for his alleged distasteful comments during the ‘India’s Got Latent’ show, the Supreme Court granted him interim protection from arrest in the two FIRs registered against him. The Court also restricted registering fresh FIRs over the matter.
The Supreme Court rapped the Youtuber for the alleged derogatory comments and said “it exhibited the perversion in his mind”. Hearing Allahbadia’s plea for clubbing FIRs and protection from arrest, a bench comprising justices Surya Kant and N. Kotishwar Singh granted the plea subject to Allahbadia’s cooperation with the probe. “Arrest of petitioner under the Mumbai and Guwahati FIRs shall be stayed subject condition that Ranveer Allahbadia shall join investigation as and when summoned. Interim protection from arrest is granted on the premise that full cooperation has to be given without any lawyer inside police station,” Bar and Bench reported.
