Sushant Singh Rajput’s friend, Sandip Ssingh, has now sued the channel Republic TV and its editor-in-chief – Arnab Goswami for defamation.
Ssingh took to Instagram and shared a copy of the legal notice which says the channel was ‘running/airing defamatory news items with criminal intent to extort money’.
Sandip Ssingh was termed as a “key conspirator” and “murderer” by Republic TV. He also alleged that someone from the news channel got in touch with him and asked for monetary benefits for the channel if he wanted to stop the news from being aired against him. As he refused, the notice stated that the channel carried out several reports and made serious allegations against him.
Sandip captioned his legal notice saying, “It’s Payback time @republicworld #Defamation #EnoughIsEnough.”
Demanding INR 200 crores as compensation, Sandip’s legal notice said, “By this legal notice, you noticees hereby called upon to drop delete and remove all the malicious footage and articles telecasting forthwith against my client or anyone on your behalf, on any other print/online forum and Tv, whatsoever and tender/release an unconditional apology in writing/video to my client for your vexatious and frivolous allegations you have already made.”
“Further, you are required to compensate my client to the tune of Rs 200.0 crores (Two Hundred Crores Only) for maligning his image in public and damages you have made till date.“
