Mumbai: The Chandigarh Police on Thursday summoned Bollywood star Salman Khan, his sister Alvira Khan Agnihotri and others after a local businessman, Arun Gupta, filed a complaint against them. The ‘Bharat’ actor, his sister, CEO of Being Human Foundation and officials of Style Quotient (licensee of Being Human Jewellery) were called for an inquiry on July 13 to verify the claims of Gupta, a report in PTI said. 

Style Quotient has issued a statement on Friday (July 9) to clarify that Salman, Alvira or any member of Being Human Foundation ‘have nothing to do’ with the case. The company said that the current matter is between SQJPL and Arun Gupta and 'Salman is only the owner of Being Human and not even a trustee of the foundation'. 

"In Dec 2015, 'Being Human- The Salman Khan Foundation' appointed Style Quotient Jewellery Pvt. Limited (SQJPL) as their global licensee for the jewellery vertical. The same was for handling manufacturing & sales of jewellery under the Brand Name of Being Human. On 3rd August 2018, SQJPL signed an MOU with Modern Jewels (Arun Gupta) to be the first Franchisee of 'Being Human Jewellery'," the statement said.
