In connection with an alleged fraud case, a court in Punjab has issued an arrest warrant for Bollywood actor Sonu Sood in Ludhiana, Punjab. Ramanpreet Kaur, the judicial magistrate of Ludhiana, issued the subpoena.
The case pertains to an alleged fraud of Rs 10 lakh that was lodged by Rajesh Khanna, a lawyer based in Ludhiana, against Mohit Shukla. Shukla alleged that he was deceived into investing in a fabricated Rijika coin.
The arrest warrant was issued as a result of Sonu Sood’s failure to appear in court for a summons to testify.
The Ludhiana court directed the Officer In-Charge of Oshiwara Police Station, Andheri West, Mumbai, to arrest Sonu Sood in its order.
“Sonu Sood, (S/o, W/o, D/o), a resident of R/O H.NO 605/606 Casablanc Apartment, has been duly served with summon(s) or warrant(s). However, he/she has failed to attend (absconds and keeps out of the way for the purpose of averting service of a summon(s) or warrant(s)”),” the order states. You are hereby directed to apprehend Sonu Sood and present him before the court.
“You are hereby directed to return this warrant on or before 10-02-2025 with an endorsement certifying the day on and the manner in which it has been executed, or the reason why it has not been executed,” the order continued to read.
The case’s subsequent hearing is scheduled for February 10.
