Rakhi Sawant Faces Non-Bailable Warrant In 2010 Suicide Case

A Jhansi court has reportedly issued a non-bailable warrant against Bollywood actress Rakhi Sawant regarding a case from 2010. The legal matter is linked to her reality show, Rakhi Ka Insaaf, which aired on NDTV Imagine.

The case involves Laxman Ahirwar, a resident of Jhansi, who allegedly committed suicide following remarks made by Sawant on her television show, according to NDTV. The Free Press Journal reports that during an episode, Sawant allegedly used abusive language and called Ahirwar "namard" (impotent) in front of his wife and family. Following the incident, a case was registered against Sawant and members of her team at Premnagar police station under several sections of the Indian Penal Code involving defamation, intentional insult, and obscene language.

In response to reports of the warrant, Sawant reacted on Instagram to a report by ABP Live News by posting a series of laughing emojis.
