Court Summons Sweet Preity Zinta
A court issued summons to Bollywood actor Preity Zinta and co-owner Ness Wadia on Monday for using pictures of freedom fighters in their Indian Premier League advertisements. Zinta and Wadia are summoned on April 2.The summons were issued by Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Anshul Berry on a complaint filed by city-based NGO Global Human Rights Council (GHRC). GHRC had objected on the use of pictures of freedom fighters, including of Bhagat Singh and Rajguru, in the advertisements of Kings XI Punjab.
"Earlier summons could not reach the accused as they were traveling at various match venues in the country. Now I will personally go to hand over the summons to Preity Zinta and others at the Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) stadium," said Arvind Thakur, president of GHRC.
