Rakhi Sawant recently filed a criminal defamation complaint in a court here against her friend for 'comparing her to a dog' and making unsavoury remarks about her character. In the complaint filed before the Andheri metropolitan magistrate, Rakhi sought action against her friend Rajashree Morey under Indian Penal Code sections 500 (defamation), 504 (intentional insults and provocation), 506 (criminal intimidation) and 509 (intending to insult the modesty of a woman).
According to PTI, Rajashree
Morey, who runs a nail art studio, had a tiff with Rakhi, following which she allegedly made the comments at a press conference. Its video is available online, said Rakhi's plea, filed through advocate Ali Kaashif Khan.
Rajashree blatantly implied and accused Sawant of being involved in prostitution and thus "outraged her modesty" in public, the plea alleged. Further, she also compared the actor to a dog and questioned her mental health, the complaint said. The matter will be heard on November 6.
