Bombay HC stays FIR against Kapil Sharma over illegal construction

Bombay High Court on Thursday stayed FIR against comedian Kapil Sharma over alleged illegal construction in his flat in suburban Goregaon.

Earlier in October 2016, Bombay High Court has granted interim stay on BMC’s notice, which directed demolition of an illegal structure constructed by Kapil Sharma in Goregaon, Mumbai.

Comedian Kapil Sharma had approached the HC challenging the April 28 notice issued by the civic body under section 351 of the Mumbai Municipal Corporation Act, claiming that it was “bad in law”, “perverse” and issued with “malafide intentions”.

The corporation in its notice claimed that certain constructions in the 18-storey residential building ‘DLH Enclave’ in Goregaon, in which the actor has a flat, were illegal and hence will have to be razed down.
