‘The magistrate, Andheri Railway Mobile Court, today issued summons asking Madhur Bhandarkar to appear before it Oct 18 and file his statement in the case,’ advocate S. Kunjuraman, lawyer for the alleged victim, Pretti Jain, told IANS.
Despite repeated attempts by IANS, Bhandarkar remained unavailable for comment and did not reply to SMSes seeking his version of the developments — later his phone was switched off.
Police earlier requested the court to dismiss the case against Bhandarkar as during their investigations they found Pretti’s allegations false.
Kunjuraman said that Magistrate B.B. Pantawane Monday issued summons to Bhandarkar over Jain’s complaint over offences including rape and intimidation.
