Mumbai police issue notices to audience of Kunal Kamra show
PTC News Desk: The Mumbai police have now issued notices to the audience member who had attended the stand-up comedy show during which Kunal Kamra sparked row with his dig at Maharashtra deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.
Police served notices to audience members under CRPC section 179 which authorises police to summon witnesses for interrogation. IPS officer-turned lawyer YP Singh said that though police is authorised to summon the atendees of the show for questioning, calling all the spectators is not mandatory as electronic evidence already exists pertaining to the case.
Meanwhile, police have begun recording statements of some of the people who attended Kamra's show 'Naya Bharat' on Feb 2 at Habitat Studio. Police are probing his alleged remarks about Maharashtra deputy CM Eknath Shinde in the show.
Earlier Khar police on Monday reached Kunal Kamra's residence to ensure whether he was present to which he responded by posting a message on his social media platform X saying that it was a complete waste of time.
Kamra posted on X: "Going to an address where I haven't lived for the last 10 Years is a waste of your time & public resources..."
