Case Filed Against Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar & Other Popular Bollywood & Tollywood Actors For Revealing Rape-Victim's Real Name

A petition has been filed by a Delhi-based lawyer demanding the arrest of 38 celebrities from Bollywood and Tollywood for revealing the real name of the rape victim on their social media platforms.

It’s been two years since the horrific ‘Disha rape case’ that shook the entire nation happened in Hyderabad. The rape case took place in the outskirts of Hyderabad, where a 26-year-old veterinary doctor was gang-raped, killed, and burnt alive by four men.

And now a petition has been filed by a Delhi-based lawyer demanding the arrest of 38 celebrities from Bollywood and Tollywood, including popular names like- Ravi Teja, Rakul Preet, Salman Khan, and Akshay Kumar for revealing the real name of the rape victim on their social media platforms.

According to a report in TOI, a case has been filed against Anupam Kher, Farhan Akhtar, Ajay Devgn, Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan, Maharaja Ravi Teja, Rakul Preet Singh, Allu Sirish, Charmme Kaur, and other celebs who mentioned the real name of the victim while tweeting about the incident.

The report further adds that, a Delhi-based lawyer Gaurav Gulati has filed a complaint against the celebrities regarding the same in Sabzi Mandi Police Station under IPC section 228 A and also has filed a petition in Tees Hazari Court, alleging that these celebrities were not being responsible citizens.

Gulati accused the celebrities of revealing the name of the rape victim despite the law prohibiting the act. The case has been filed as the celebs instead of setting an example for others by not publicizing the victim's name, have themselves broken the rule by revealing her real identity on social media platforms. Therefore the lawyer has reportedly sought an immediate arrest of all the above celebs, alleging that they have shown no social responsibility while maintaining the privacy of the victim.
