Overview
- The court re-issued a bailable warrant against Malaika Arora on April 7, 2025, after her failure to appear in court as a witness.
- The case stems from a 2012 incident at a Mumbai hotel where Saif Ali Khan allegedly assaulted NRI businessman Iqbal Mir Sharma, fracturing his nose.
- Saif Ali Khan, along with Shakeel Ladak and Bilal Amrohi, has been charge-sheeted under Section 325 of the Indian Penal Code for assault.
- The incident reportedly escalated after Sharma objected to the loud behavior of Khan and his group, leading to conflicting accounts of provocation and assault.
- The next hearing in the case is scheduled for April 29, 2025, as the court continues to record witness testimonies.
