Aditya Pancholi charged for allegedly threatening a mechanic

Controversy’s favourite child, actor Aditya Pancholi is once again hitting headlines. This time around, it is for threatening a mechanic. A non-cognisable offence has been registered against the actor at Versova police station for abusing and threatening a mechanic.

According to a report in ANI, the complainant is a 47-year-old car mechanic, Mosin Kadar Rajapkar. Aditya Pancholi had given him his luxury car to be repaired in March 2017. After doing the job, Rajapkar gave Pancholi a bill of Rs 2.82 lakhs against the job done. But the actor did not pay him his dues. Since then, the mechanic has been constantly asking the actor to clear his dues but to no avail. Now, the actor not only abused him, but also threatened to kill him when he was asked to pay the car repair charges of Rs 2.8 lakhs.

“On the complaint of the mechanic, we have registered a non-cognisable offence against the actor and our probe is underway,” senior inspector at the station Ravindra Badgujar told NDTV.

Aditya, in his defense, said that he has cleared all the dues and has bank statements to prove.

Non-cognisable offences are those for which a police officer has no authority to arrest, unless with a warrant.
