Rakhi Sawant Files fraud Case against Star Tv For Votes Tampering in Nach Baliye
Mumbai Police’s Crime Branch will investigate actress Rakhi Sawant’s complaint against TV channel Star TV’s reality dance show, Nach Baliye.
Dilip Patil, police officer in charge of Oshiwara police station, said that Rakhi and her choreographer Abhishekh Awasthi submitted a joint written complaint, alleging malpractices by the channel.
“We have accepted the complaint but not yet registered a case,” Patil told IANS Tuesday. A police team will go into all aspects of the matter before deciding whether it merits further proceedings, including a formal police case, he emphasized.
Patil also made it clear this was a “non-priority” matter and would be probed in the routine course. “There are far bigger issues of importance than this, so we shall deploy our men as per the merits of the case,” he said.
