Kangana Ranaut
Mumbai, September 20
Actor Kangana Ranaut appeared in a Mumbai court today in connection with a criminal defamation complaint filed against her by lyricist Javed Akhtar. She said she had “lost faith” in the magistrate’s court as it indirectly “threatened” her of issuing a warrant if she failed to appear before it in a bailable offence.
Ranaut also moved a counter complaint against Akhtar for alleged “extortion and criminal intimidation”, and her lawyer informed the court that they had filed an application before the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, seeking transfer of hearing to another court. — PTI
