In the 2007 obscenity case, a sessions court dismissed an appeal filed by the state against actress Shilpa Shetty Kundra. A metropolitan magistrate in January 2022, discharged Shilpa from a criminal case filed against her in 2007 in Rajasthan's Alwar for the alleged offence of obscenity following an event where she was hugged and kissed by Hollywood actor Richard Gere in public. Opposing the states's appeal, Shilpa's lawyer Prashant Patil submitted that the only allegation against her was that she did not protest when she was kissed by the "co-accused", Richanrd Gere, and it did not make her a conspirator or perpetrator of any crime. Patil sought a dismissal of the appeal filed against her discharge in the case. For more news and updates, stay tuned to ETimes.
