Karan Oberoi’s Sister Files Complaint Against Tantric-cum-healer For Practising Black Magic
A tantric-cum-healer had accused Karan Oberoi of rape. The actor was bailed out a couple of months ago. Now, the actor’s sister has filed a complaint against the woman for practising black magic.
A
couple
of
months
ago,
Karan
Oberoi
was
granted
bail
after
being
accused
of
rape
and
extortion
by
a
34-year-old
woman,
who
is
apparently
a
tantric-cum-healer.
Now,
his
sister
Gurbani
Oberoi
has
moved
the
Andheri
Metropolitan
Magistrate
Court
against
the
Mumbai-based
woman
for
practising
black
magic
(witchcraft).
Gurbani
revealed
that
the
woman
had
threatened
and
claimed
that
she
was
using
witchcraft
to
harm
her
parents.
BT
quoted
her
as
saying,
"Her
witchcraft
practices
are
not
a
new
development.
My
brother
had
mentioned
it
in
his
NC,
which
he
had
filed
against
her
in
October
last
year,
seven
months
before
she
filed
the
case
against
him.
She
had
threatened
us
with
dire
consequences
and
claimed
that
she
was
using
witchcraft
to
cause
my
parents
pain
and
suffering.
Such
women
cannot
be
above
the
law."
Even
Karan
Oberoi
said
that
he
suffered
for
a
long
time.
He
added
that
although
he
had
clearly
mentioned
in
his
complaint
about
the
woman's
association
with
witchcraft,
no
action
was
taken
against
her.
Karan
added,
"Practising
witchcraft
is
a
serious
crime
in
Maharashtra,
and
one
can't
get
away
using
the
gender
card.
Every
time
someone
gets
away
with
an
unlawful
practice,
it
emboldens
the
others
to
follow
suit.
For
the
good
of
society,
it's
important
to
keep
crime
and
punishment
gender
neutral.
Initiatives
like
#MenToo
are
the
need
of
the
hour."
Karan's
lawyer
Dinesh
Tiwari
too
echoed
the
same.
He
said
that
'Propagating
and
promoting
such
theories
in
any
form
is
illegal',
which
is
the
ground
of
their
complaint.
He
also
revealed
that
besides
publishing
a
book
on
witchcraft
and
voodoo,
she
has
been
propagating
it
on
chat
groups
and
even
teaching
people.
