Mumbai court rejects discharge applications of Uddhav Thackeray, Sanjay Raut in defamation case
A Mumbai court has refused to discharge Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray and MP Sanjay Raut of defamation charges levelled by MP Rahul Shewale, their former ally.
Shewale filed a defamation complaint against the Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders over an article published in Sena mouthpiece ‘Saamana’ on December 29, 2022 pertaining to Shewale’s alleged real estate dealings.
Thackeray is the Chief Editor of the daily newspaper, while Raut is its Executive Editor.
Additional Metropolitan Magistrate Sewree S.B. Kale, while rejecting the discharge applications of Thackeray and Raut, listed the matter for further hearing in November.
