According
to
media
reports,
charges
have
been
filed
against
Bollywood
actor-turned-politician
Sunny
Deol
and
actor
Karisma
Kapoor
by
a
Railway
court
for
pulling
the
emergency
chain
of
a
train,
over
two
decades
ago
while
shooting
for
a
film.
According
to
the
counsel
of
Kapoor
and
Deol,
AK
Jain,
both
stars
challenged
the
order
in
the
sessions
court
on
Wednesday.
It
is
being
said
that
the
actors
illegally
pulled
the
chain
of
train
2413-A
Uplink
Express.
Their
actions
led
to
the
train
getting
delayed
by
25
minutes.
The
actors
challenged
in
2010,
the
charges
that
were
initially
read
out
against
both
actors
in
2009.
The
sessions
court
had
earlier
vindicated
both
actors
only
to
frame
charges
against
them
again,
Jain
said.
Earlier,
stuntmen
Tinu
Verma
and
Satish
Shah
were
also
involved
in
the
case.
However,
they
did
not
challenge
the
charges
against
them.
On
September
24,
the
next
hearing
of
the
1997
case
will
take
place
as
per
the
Railway
court's
schedule.
The
case
was
filed
by
the
then
assistant
station
master
Sitaram
Malakar
of
Narena
with
the
General
Railway
Police.
The
actors
were
accused
of
violating
Section
141
(needlessly
interfering
with
the
means
of
communication
in
a
train),
Section
145
(drunkenness
or
nuisance),
Section
146
(obstructing
a
railway
servant
in
his
duties)
and
Section
147
(trespass
and

to
desist
from

of
the
