‘Sunny Leone harassed unnecessarily’: Kerala High Court on cheating case against the actress

Published

on

The Kerala High Court is likely to quash the criminal proceeding against actress Sunny Leone in a cheating case.

A Kerala High Court judge has reportedly said that the ‘One Night Stand’ actress has been ‘harassed unnecessarily’. The case has been scheduled for a hearing on March 31.

What is the case?

For those unversed, a case was filed three years ago by a native of Perumbavoor in Kochi. The petitioner had alleged that Sunny, her husband Daniel Weber and their manager, Sunil Rajani, cheated him and breached the trust of a contract in connection with an event.

However, in a counter-petition, Sunny stated that her manager took Rs 30 lakh and gave the complainant her dates but the event organisers changed the dates multiple times.

The petitioner had stated that Sunny failed to reach the event despite taking an advance amount, but the actress reportedly said that the show’s dates and times were changed multiple times for various reasons.

According to a report in News18, Sunny was charged with violating Indian Penal Code Sections 406 (criminal breach of trust), 420 (cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property) and 34 (acts carried out by several people in furtherance of common purpose).

Sunny has also withdrawn her anticipatory bail filed in the Kerala High Court.

Sunny Leone’s upcoming projects

Meanwhile, on the work front, Sunny recently hosted Splitsvilla 14 with Arjun Bijlani. Over the years, she has been a part of popular films such as Mastizaade, Ragini MMS 2, Jism 2, One Night Stand, Raees, Beiimaan Love and others.

She has an interesting line-up of films and projects ahead. Sunny will be seen in Vikram Bhatt’s Anamika, a power-packed multilingual film, Shero, and Quotation Gang along with Anurag Kashyap.
