But Door Is…"},"content":{"rendered":"
Mumbai and Guwahati police went looking for Ranveer Allahbadia<\/a>, aka ‘the BeerBiceps guy<\/a>‘, Friday – the podcaster who faces charges of obscenity and offending public morality, and is under fire for crass comments while filming an episode of ‘India’s Got Latent<\/a>‘, a stand-up comedy show.<\/p>\n But he was not to be found at his Mumbai residence; the apartment was locked.<\/p>\n A police officer told news agency PTI that Mumbai law enforcement had initiated an inquiry and went to the apartment, in the city’s Versova neighbourhood, to question him.<\/p>\n On Thursday, Allahbadia had been asked to report to the police station in Mumbai’s Khar to record his statement. However, he later requested that this be done at his home.<\/p>\n The request was denied. And, after he failed to appear, the cops issued a second summons and then landed up at his home, in which they were joined by colleagues from Guwahati.<\/p>\n The cops from Assam wanted to question Allahbadia in a case filed by a city resident, who had accused the podcaster of promoting obscene content on an online platform available to all.<\/p>\n Disappointed, both police teams returned to the Khar Police Station.<\/p>\n While Allahbadia was not available for questioning, his legal representative – Abhinav Chandrachud, the son of former Chief Justice DY Chandrachud – approached the Supreme Court to seek relief from the many cases; Allahbadia has asked for these to be clubbed.<\/p>\n READ |\u00a0<\/strong>Ranveer Allahbadia Goes To Supreme Court Over Multiple FIRs<\/a><\/p>\n An early hearing was requested, but Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna said ‘no’, pointing out a date had already been assigned. He also sought anticipatory bail – to ward off the Guwahati Police.<\/p>\n The Guwahati case was filed on Monday and also names Samay Raina, the stand-up comic who hosts the ‘India’s Got Latent’ show. Raina has also been summoned by Mumbai Police and Maharashtra’s Cyber Department, which is conducting an independent investigation. He had been told to appear within five days, but has asked for more time, stating he is currently in the United States.<\/p>\n
