Overview
- The Crime Branch registered an FIR accusing the actor of posting fake and objectionable content after Salman Lala’s death.
- Ajaz Khan appeared before Additional DCP Rajesh Dandotiya, apologized, deleted the video, and surrendered his mobile phone.
- Police said he wrongly claimed Lala could not have drowned and alleged a religion-based motive, assertions officials deny.
- Dandotiya said the statements were serious enough to trigger legal action and that Khan was questioned for about three hours.
- The case cites Sections 223, 196, and 353(1)(b)(g) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, and the investigation continues, with Khan’s earlier separate FIR in Delhi having led to anticipatory bail in October.
