The Calcutta High Court has dismissed the case, giving relief to a person accused of making fun of Mamta Banerjee. The bench said that no such strong evidence has been found on the charge of making fun of the CM and other leaders of West Bengal that the case should be run. While hearing the case, Justice Ajay Kumar Gupta said, “After examining the case diary and available evidence in detail, there is no prima facie case against the accused. The case cannot be taken forward by filing the charge sheet without any evidence. Not only this, even if the case is run, there is little possibility that something will be proved against the accused. Apart from this, doing so would be like keeping prejudice against the accused and harassing him.
The court said that when there is no evidence and the case is not worth running, then why should the case be heard further. It would be better to end the case itself. In fact, a case was registered against the accused for making fun of Mamta Banerjee and some other leaders. Against this, the accused had moved the court under section 482 and said that the case filed against me should be abolished. The accused said that he had said something on YouTube and on the basis of that, some people caught him and implicated him. The accused said that I had no such intention to insult anyone. A case was registered against him that his comment has damaged social harmony.
The accused said that I am completely innocent. I have no role in that act, on the basis of which a case has been registered against me. The accused said that fake cases have been filed for the purpose of harassing me. On this, the bench agreed and said that if this case was carried forward, it would be the harassment of the petitioner. Not only this, the accused accused said that the officer had filed a charge sheet without adequate investigation. Accusing me that I had made objectionable remarks on CM, while nothing was told by me.
