Legal judgement
Patna HC Quashes Complaint Against Farah Khan Ali For Tweet On Salman Khan Hit-And-Run Case [Read Judgment] the article on LiveLaw.com
A widely criticized statement was made by Farah Kahn Ali about making people sleep on separate roads to avoid being victims of accidents arising from drink driving. This was said seemingly in support of Salman Khan after his alleged case of drunk driving. This was perceived to have put the blame of the accident on those sleeping on the roadside instead of whoever was driving the car that caused the accident. The incident drew widespread criticism for her insensitivity towards the plight of victims and seemingly ludicrous statements by many celebrities. A case was also registered against her for same.
Perusing the complaint, Justice Birendra Kumar observed: "A bare perusal of the complaint petition does not reveal that the statement of the petitioner on the issue above was malignantly or willingly made which was illegal. The same was not intended to give any provocation to any person knowing that the provocation would cause riot."
The court also observed that complaint petition did not reveal that any imputation prejudicial to the national integrity was there except bald statement of the complainant.
It also said that there is no material disclosing the ingredients of offences for which FIR has been instituted against Farah Khan Ali and that the continuance of the criminal proceeding against the petitioner would amount to an abuse of the process of the court.
