Kangana Ranaut, who has several legal cases open against her, and her sister Rangoli Chandel in Mumbai have moved to the Supreme Court seeking to transfer all criminal cases to Shimla.
Kangana
Ranaut,
who
has
several
legal
cases
open
against
her,
and
her
sister
Rangoli
Chandel
in
Mumbai
have
moved
to
the
Supreme
Court
seeking
to
transfer
all
criminal
cases
to
Shimla.
According
to
reports,
criminal
cases
include
the
defamation
complaint
filed
by
Javed
Akhtar,
and
another
case
filed
against
the
sisters
for
their
offensive
tweets
hurting
religious
sentiments.
While
seeking
the
transfer
of
cases,
Kangana
and
Rangoli
claimed
that
the
cases
filed
against
them
were
filed
with
malicious
intent
to
malign
their
image.
An
ANI
report
also
said,
"Actor
Kangana
Ranaut
and
her
sister
Rangoli
Chandel
have
moved
the
Supreme
Court
seeking
transfer
of
criminal
cases
pending
against
them
in
various
courts
of
Mumbai
to
Shimla
in
Himachal
Pradesh."
The
Ranaut
sisters
in
their
plea
have
claimed
that
they
have
a
threat
to
their
life
and
property
if
the
trials
are
conducted
in
Mumbai,
alleging
harassment
and
previous
tiff
with
political
personalities.
"It
is
pertinent
to
mention
that
the
Maharashtra
government
led
by
Shiv
Sena
has
been
harassing
the
petitioners," the
plea
filed
through
Advocate
Neeraj
Shekhar
stated.
According
to
reports,
Kangana
has
sought
transfer
of
cases
after
a
Mumbai
court
issued
a
bailable
warrant
against
the
Bollywood
actress
earlier
this
week.
Kangana
who
was
summoned
by
the
court,
failed
to
appear
before
it
on
March
1,
in
connection
with
a
defamation
complaint
filed
against
her
by
lyricist
Javed
Akhtar.
