BHUBANESWAR: Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Cuttack, Pinak Mishra said that the fresh FIR against Kendrapara BJD MP Anubhav Mohanty is being analyzed and legal action will be taken in accordance with the law if the charges are found cognizable.
“We have acknowledged the complaint filed by Varsha Priyadarshini at Purighat police station. We will analyze the content of the FIR and take action accordingly,” Mishra said.
The DCP also said that a case was earlier registered at Purighat Police Station against the MP by his actress wife. “We are also taking into consideration the subsequent complaints being made by her. Action will be taken after analyzing whether contents are cognizable or non-cognizable offence,” he said.
The Parliamentarian has released two videos. In the first video titled ‘untold story’, he promised to spill the beans about the discord with his estranged wife Varsha Priyadarshini, but only if fans gave him the permission to do so, while in the second, he elaborated on the reason which forced him to file a case for divorce from his wife.
Varsha lodged complaint against her husband and his family at Purighat police station in Cuttack on Sunday. In her seven-page FIR, she accused Anubhav of telling concocted story through two videos in order to tarnish her image when the matter is sub-judice.
She also alleged that the actor has been assassinating her character by uploading such videos and giving untasteful comments.
Notably, the actor-turned-politician, Anubhav Mohanty, uploaded two videos on May 19 and 21. In the videos, which are now going viral on social media platforms, the Parliamentarian has held his wife Varsha responsible for their estranged marital relationship.
It is worth mentioning that the BJD MP was excluded from the list of party’s star campaigners for Pipili bypoll. His name is also missing from the recently released list of BJD’s campaigners for the Brajarajnagar bypoll.
