"Maliciously False": Bihar Cops On Sedition Charge Against Celebrities | Read
The Bihar police have decided to close the sedition case against the 49 celebrities who wrote an open letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in July, asking that mob killing of Muslims, Dalits and other minorities be stopped immediately. A case will also be filed against the complainant - Sudhir Ojha, an advocate --- for filing frivolous complaints, the police said. The sedition case against the celebrities - including actor and film-maker Aparna Sen, author Ramchandra Guha and film-maker Shyam Benegal -- was filed last week, leading to a huge controversy.
