On Sunday (September 17), the Kolkata (Sealdah) court issued an arrest warrant for Bollywood actress Zareen Khan on accusations of alleged cheating on a city-based event management firm in 2018.

According to reports, the actress rejected notices to appear in court one after the other. Finally, the court issued a warrant for her arrest. Zareen has not filed for bail or appeared in court. According to India Today, the court was obligated to issue the arrest order due to her recurrent absences.

Zareen Khan, on the other hand, voiced her confusion and stated that the charges were false. "I'm certain this isn't true. I, too, am astonished and am consulting with my attorney. Only then will I be able to offer you some clarification," the actor was reported as saying by India Today.

During the initial interrogation, Zareen Khan stated that the organisers had misled her, claiming that the event would be attended by Bengal's chief minister and numerous notable politicians.
