Disha Salian case: Father seeks Rs 500 cr, apology

Mumbai (Maharashtra): Nilesh Ojha, Satish Salian's advocate, recently sent a legal notice demanding an apology and Rs 500 crore compensation to Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray. The notice was also a response to a threat allegedly made against them. According to Ojha, one of their junior lawyers is currently serving the notice, which seeks an apology and compensation for defamation.

Ojha emphasized that everyone is equal under the Constitution and expressed their intention to demonstrate the power of the common man. The Salian family plans to visit Aaditya Thackeray's residence at 4 pm to serve the notice, regardless of any threats made by Thackeray. Aaditya Thackeray had previously denied any knowledge of Disha Salian, describing the linking of his name to the case as character assassination motivated by political and personal motives.

The fresh CBI investigation into Disha Salian's death, which occurred in June 2020, continues amid the ongoing legal proceedings.
