The City Civil Court in Mumbai restrained filmmaker Abhinav Kashyap and YouTube hosts of Bollywood Thikana from making or circulating defamatory statements about Salman Khan and his family. The court barred all ‘derogatory’ remarks amid the defamation row.
The Bombay High Court granted bail to Waspi Mehmud Khan and Gaurav Vinod Bhatia, accused of a foiled plot to kill Salman Khan, citing insufficient evidence. Their only link to the conspiracy was their presence in a WhatsApp group. The court highlighted that this did not prove direct involvement in the alleged plot.
The Mumbai sessions court denied bail to shooter Vicky Gupta, linked to the April shooting at Salman Khan’s residence. The court ruled the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) applies due to organized crime involvement. Prosecutors argued Gupta’s actions were part of a broader conspiracy. Defense claimed he was manipulated and lacked criminal intent.
