Shinde Row: Kunal Kamra Skips Third Summon, Sends Letter To Mumbai Police
Comic Kunal Kamra, who landed in trouble after his joke on Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde sparked a massive controversy, wrote a letter to the Mumbai Police requesting that his statement be recorded via video conferencing.
The comedian’s request came after the Khar Police Station issued him three summons, asking him to appear for questioning regarding the controversial statement that has sparked widespread debate.
However, Kamra failed to comply with these summonses, leading to his request for a video-conference option to give his statement.
The Khar Police have yet to respond to Kamra’s fresh appeal.
On April 4, a team of police officers from Khar Police Station reached Pondicherry to investigate the FIR registered against him. Kamra is a permanent resident of Tamil Nadu.
Meanwhile, Kamra has secured interim anticipatory bail in the matter till April 7 from the Madras high court, which provides temporary protection from arrest in a jurisdiction different from where the FIR has been filed.
On March 24, the Khar police registered a case against Kamra on a complaint by Shiv Sena MLA Murji Patel concerning his show ‘Naya Bharat’, where he referred to Shinde as a ‘gaddar’ (traitor).
