Stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra continues to face mounting challenges following his controversial remarks allegedly targeting Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde. Kamra, who has been summoned by the Mumbai Police for the case, sought a week to appear, citing over 500 threatening calls, many allegedly from Shiv Sena supporters. His lawyer submitted an appeal and the reply in person to the Khar Police Station. The Police have rejected the stand-up artiste’s request. Some of these threats reportedly included violent warnings to kill or dismember him.
The Khar Police will issue a second summons to Kunal Kamra today, under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita Section 35. Earlier, Mumbai Police sent a summons to the stand-up artist asking him to appear before the investigating officer on Tuesday. The MIDC police registered a first information report against Kamra for his remarks during a stand-up comedy show, which was then transferred to Khar police for further investigation.
In response to Kamra’s remarks, Shiv Sena workers vandalised The Habitat studio in Mumbai’s Khar area, where the show was recorded. Police arrested 12 individuals involved in the vandalism but granted them bail soon after. A case has also been registered against 40 workers for their role in the incident.
