The Bombay High Court has quashed a 2019 complaint lodged against actor Salman Khan by a journalist alleging misbehaviour.

The high court also quashed the summons issued to Salman Khan and his bodyguard Nawaz Shaikh by a lower court last year.

Journalist Ashok Pandey had alleged that in April 2019, the actor and his bodyguard had abused and assaulted him for filming the actor while he was cycling on the road.

Pandey had filed a private complaint before the magistrate seeking action against the actor.

Khan in his petition had claimed there were contradictions and improvisations in Pandey's complaint and that he had not said anything to the journalist at the time of the alleged incident.
