Maharashtra Cyber Cell issued another summons to Raina
Maharashtra Cyber Cell has sent a second summons to Raina at a comedian time in India’s Got Latant case. The stand-up comedian has been asked to appear before the investigating officer on 17 February. This happened when Raina’s lawyer informed the cyber cell that Raina is in America and will return on March 17. However, the Mumbai Police had clearly told Raina’s team that the police investigation cannot wait for so many days. Therefore, the comedian will have to appear before the police within 14 days of starting the inquiry.

The Khar police have so far recorded statements of seven people in this case. These include Ranveer Allahbadia, Ashish Chanchalani and Apoorva Makhija who attended the show as a panelist, as well as the studio where the show took place, along with the owner of the show, Balraj Ghai as well as three technical people associated with the show.
