Rohit Roy and Kamya Panjabi extended support to Zomato delivery executive, who was accused of hitting a Bengaluru-based influencer. The two popular TV stars took to Twitter to express their opinion over the matter which has hogged all the limelight on social media.
Kamya, who is currently seen in ‘Shakti-Astitva Ke Ehsaas Ki’, requested Zomato to not terminate the services of their delivery executive. The ‘Bigg Boss 7’ contestant tagged the official Twitter handle of the food delivery giant and said that she felt Kamraj is innocent.
“Well the eyes says it all... i feel #Kamraj the #ZomatoDeliveryGuy is innocent n i hope he gets justice @zomatoin @zomatocare @zomato pls dont let him lose his job,” Kamya wrote while responding to a tweet.
Rohit Roy also commented on the alleged assault case and sought justice for the food delivery boy. He tweeted, “I don’t know for sure what went down between the zomato exec and the lady in question but unless he’s a fabulous actor, he’s not lying... I hope he gets justice and quick! @zomatoin.”
South actress Pranitha Subhash demanded strict action against the woman in question if the delivery boy’s side of the story came out as true.
“So, food delivery is time-bound but justice is not? If the delivery man's version is found to be true, strict action must be taken for mischaractarization. I hope justice is delivered swiftly too.” the ‘Bhuj: The Pride Of India’ actress wrote on the micro-blogging site.
Earlier in the day, Parineeti Chopra requested the concerned authorities to look into the matter and ‘publicly report the truth’. The ‘Saina’ star even asked the delivery service to let her know how she could help.

“Zomato India - PLEASE find and publicly report the truth. If the gentleman is innocent (and I believe he is), PLEASE help us penalise the woman in question. This is inhuman, shameful and heartbreaking. Please let me know how I can help,” Chopra tweeted.
According to a report in PTI, the Zomato delivery personnel was arrested for allegedly attacking the model and make-up artist. He was later granted bail. The woman named Hitesha Chandranee shared a video on Twitter in which she claimed that the delivery executive assaulted her after she complained against him for late delivery.
Zomato has temporarily suspended its delivery executive, who has denied the allegations against him. The food tech unicorn is covering the legal expenses of Kamraj and the medical expenses of Hitesha, the company said in a statement.
"We are helping both Hitesha and Kamraj with all the support they need while the investigation is pendng. We are also assisting the police in whichever way asked," the statement read.
