Kamal R Khan Withdraws His Plea In SC Against HC's Order Restraining Him From Making Defamatory Remarks Against Vashu Bhagnani

Kamaal R. Khan has withdrawn his petition filed  in the Supreme Court against the Bombay High Court's interim order restraining him from making defamatory statements/videos on social media against Bollywood producer Vashu Bhagnani.

Senior Advocate Rakesh Khanna, appearing for Kamaal R. Khan, sought to withdraw the appeal with the option to appeal before the Division Bench of the Bombay High Court.

A bench of Justice K.M. Joseph and Ravindra Bhatt allowed the withdrawal of the petition.

The plea was filed challenging the interim order by Bombay High Court, by a single judge bench of Justice AK Menon, on a suit filed by Bhagnani, against a series of tweets and a video by Khan, making numerous allegations against the producer and his family.

Vide the order, the Bombay High Court restrained Kamaal R. Khan from making defamatory statements or videos on social media platforms against Bollywood producer Vashu Bhagnani till a final order was passed on the latter's Rs. 1 crore defamation suit.
