A
TV
journalist
moved
a
court
in
Mumbai
on
Tuesday
seeking
registration
of
a
First
Information
Report
(FIR)
against
Bollywood
star
Salman
Khan
and
his
bodyguards
for
allegedly
assaulting
him
after
he
tried
to
film
the
actor
who
was
riding
a
bicycle.
Ashok
Pandey,
the
journalist,
filed
a
'private
complaint'
in
the
court
of
R
R
Khan,
Additional
Chief
Metropolitan
Magistrate,
Andheri,
under
IPC
sections
323
(causing
hurt),
392
(robbery),
and
506
(criminal
intimidation).
According
to
the
complaint,
the
alleged
incident
took
place
in
the
wee
hours
of
April
24
when
Salman
Khan
was
riding
a
bicycle
escorted
by
two
body-guards.
Pandey
said
he
was
riding
in
a
car,
and
after
spotting
the
actor
-
known
to
be
a
bicycle
enthusiast
-
started
recording
a
video
after
seeking
consent
of
Khan's
bodyguards.
The
actor,
however,
got
enraged,
and
his
bodyguards
allegedly
came
to
the
car
and
started
thrashing
Pandey,
the
application
said.
Khan
too
assaulted
him
and
snatched
away
his
mobile
phone,
Pandey
alleged.
The
trio
threatened
him
with
dire
consequences,
the
complaint
said.
He
approached
the
court
because
police
disposed
of
his
complaint
saying
that
no
crime
was
made
out,
the
journalist
alleged.
The
application,
seeking
registration
of
FIR
and
probe,
will
be
heard
by
the
magistrate
on

12.
