Chandigarh Court Summons Salman Khan in Being Human Jewellery Dispute
The Story in Brief
A Chandigarh court has summoned actor Salman Khan, his sister Alvira Khan Agnihotri and executives of Style and Content Jewellery Pvt Ltd over a cheating complaint. The complainant, Chandigarh businessman Arun Gupta, alleges he invested nearly Rs 3 crore in a Being Human jewellery showroom in Manimajra after promises of business support. He says the outlet has been shut since February 2020, causing major losses. The accused have been asked to appear on October 5.
The company denies wrongdoing and says Salman Khan was not directly involved in the 2018 agreement. It says the Salman Khan Foundation only licensed the Being Human name to the company. The summons is a procedural step, and the allegations have not been established by the court.
The Indian Opinion
Celebrity-linked disputes often receive exaggerated attention, but the available facts are limited to a complaint, a court summons and the company’s denial. A summons does not establish guilt. The accused will have an opportunity to respond in court. Readers should distinguish between allegations and proven findings while the court examines the agreement, investment and claimed losses.
