Overview

  • Mumbai’s Charkop Police filed a rape FIR against Ajaz Khan after an actress alleged he sexually assaulted her multiple times under the pretext of marriage and career opportunities.
  • The allegations include Khan promising her a role in his OTT show 'House Arrest' and claiming his religion permits multiple marriages to assure her of marriage despite being married himself.
  • Amboli Police registered a separate FIR against Khan and others tied to 'House Arrest' for vulgar and coercive content, following a Bajrang Dal complaint and viral clips showing contestants pressured into intimate acts.
  • The National Commission for Women has summoned Khan and Ullu App CEO Vibhu Agarwal for questioning on May 9 regarding the show’s explicit content and its implications for consent and decency.
  • Both cases are under active investigation, with police invoking provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and addressing broader concerns about OTT platform accountability and content regulation.
