The
COVID-19
crisis
in
the
has
country
lead
to
a
lot
of
celebs
sharing
their
views
on
social
media.
In
the
same
vein,
comedian
Sunil
Pal
had
posted
a
video
last
month
on
his
social
media
where
he
allegedly
called
doctors
'demons’
and
'thieves’
while
handling
the
COVID-19
patients.
According
to
a
report
in
The
Times
of
India,
the
Andheri
police
in
Mumbai
have
lodged
a
first
information
report
(FIR)
against
Pal
on
Tuesday,
May
4,
for
his
video
on
social
media
wherein
he
is
seen
making
derogatory
comments
against
doctors.
The
police
have
booked
the
comedian
based
on
a
complaint
filed
by
Dr
Sushmita
Bhatnagar,
president
of
the
Association
of
Medical
Consultants
(Mumbai).
Senior
Police
Inspector
Vijay
Belge
of
Andheri
police
station
has
confirmed
that
an
FIR
has
been
filed
against
Sunil
Pal
and
he
has
been
booked
under
sections
500
(defamation)
and
505
(2)
(public
mischief)
of
the
Indian
Penal
Code.
Meanwhile,
Sunil
Pal
who
had
made
some
shocking
allegations
against
doctors
in
his
video,
has
also
broken
his
silence
and
said
that
he
has
put
out
another
video
to
apologise
to
anyone
who
was
hurt
because
of
his
views.
He
told
TOI,
"I
have
also
put
another
video
apologising
if
anyone
has
got
hurt
with
the
video.
But
I
still
stand
by
my
comments
because
doctors
were
considered
as
God.
During
these
tough
times,
poor
people
are
made
to
suffer
and
I
have
mentioned
in
the
video,
90%
of
doctors
are
dressed
in
demons
and
the
rest
there
are
still
10%
doctors
who
are
doing
their
duty
to
serve
people.
There
is
no
need
for
doctors
to
get
hurt
if
they
are
serving
and
doing
their
duty
sincerely.
Also,
I
did
not
get
any
notice
from
the
police
so
far."
