Mumbai, Jan 10 (PTI) Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Vinayak Raut on Friday filed a police complaint alleging that a video of a raid at a dance bar is being falsely linked to party colleague Aaditya Thackeray, an official said.
According to the official, the purported video was shot at a dance bar in Mumbai’s Andheri area. It shows a few women emerging from a cavity created inside the premises after police action.
However, the text superimposed on the visual claims that the place is a “cafe” owned by Aaditya Thackeray, Raut said in his complaint.
Raut told the police that the content was intentionally created and shared on social media to defame Thackeray, a former Maharashtra minister, the official said.
The cyber police of the Mumbai crime branch has initiated an inquiry into the video and further action is being taken, the official added. PTI DC NR
