Kochadaiiyaan case: ‘Humiliation and harassment of popular person’, says Rajinikanth’s wife Latha
ANI. The Supreme Court on 10 October restored alleged criminal charges against Superstar Rajinikanth's wife Latha in a matter about the Tamil film 'Kochadaiiyaan'. A bench headed by Justice AS Bopanna and MM Sundresh passed the order while hearing petitions challenging the Karnataka High Court judgment.
The SC had asked Latha to seek the trial court to have accusations of forgery and cheating against her in a criminal case dismissed. Chennai-based Ad Bureau Advertising Pvt Ltd had challenged the Karnataka HC's order which had quashed the cheating case against Rajnikanth's wife.
The impugned order dated August 2, 2022, passed by the High Court of Karnataka at Bengaluru, has been challenged by both the contesting parties. Earlier in August, the Karnataka HC had given some relief to Latha, by quashing the cheating charges against her but had maintained the forgery cases against her.
She also challenged the HC decision in the Supreme Court. Tamil film Kochadiiyaan was produced by Ad Bureau and Mediaone Global Entertainment Limited which starred Rajinikanth and Deepika Padukone.
