MP HC DISMISSES EKTA KAPOOR PLEA TO QUASH CASE | 14 November, 2020

The Indore bench of the Madhya Pradesh high court has dismissed a petition by producer Ekta Kapoor, seeking the quashing of an FIR filed against her for allegedly showing objectionable content in a web series. However, the court gave her relief as it quashed charges of hurting religious sentiments and improper use of the state emblem, as sought by her in the petition. It found that she had not breached sections of the IPC and State Emblem Act relating to the charges.
