New Delhi: Sonakshi Sinha has reacted angrily to recent allegations that said she had been handed a non-bailable warrant in connection with a fraud case.
The actress was accused of Rs. 37 lakhs fraud. Pramod Sharma, a Delhi-based event planner, had planned an event for which Sonakshi was to serve as the chief guest. She has been accused of demanding an exorbitant sum of Rs 37 lakh for an event in Delhi, however she did not show at the event.
Now the actress's team has made an official statement, which reads:
"There have been rumours of a non-bailable warrant issued against me floating in the media, without any verification from any authorities since a few days now. This is pure fiction and the work of a rogue individual trying to harass me. I request all media houses, journalists and news reporters not to carry this fake news as it is playing into this individual’s agenda to gain publicity.
This man is purely trying to gain some publicity and extort money from me by attacking my reputation which I have very proudly built over the years, by planting these malicious articles in the media. Kindly do not participate in this harassment charade.
This matter is subjudice before the Muradabad court and has been stayed by the Allahabad High Court.
My legal team will be taking all the necessary action against him for contempt of court.
This will be my only comment on this matter until the Muradabad Court has passed its verdict, so please do not approach me for the same. I am home and I can assure you there are no warrants issued against me."
Following the release of this statement, Sonakshi has said clearly that no such warrants have been issued against her.
