Delhi High Court allows the release of Udaipur Files despite a plea by accused Mohammed Javed. Court held no irreparable harm would be caused and upheld artistic freedom.
Supreme Court has asked petitioners to approach Delhi High Court over the challenge to Udaipur Files release. The film, based on tailor Kanhaiya Lal’s murder, faces objections for allegedly vilifying Muslims.
Supreme Court says it didn’t pass any written order on plea against Udaipur Files, only refused urgent listing. Clarification comes after confusion over court’s oral remark: “Let the film be released.”
The Supreme Court issued a notice on Monday(11th Nov) to Mohammed Javed, an accused in the 2022 beheading of Udaipur tailor Kanhaiya Lal, and to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) following a petition filed by Kanhaiya Lal’s son, Yash Teli.
