Karan Oberoi case: Police arrests woman who accused the actor of raping her

Actor-singer Karan Oberoi, who was arrested on charges of raping a woman, has been released on bail by the Bombay High Court. &nbsp;Granting a Rs 50,000 bail to Oberoi, Justice Revati Mohite-Dere came down heavily on the victim and police in the matter, the actor's lawyer Dinesh Tiwari said. Karan was arrested on 6th May.

In May, <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/actor-karan-oberoi-arrested-for-raping-blackmailing-woman-216391">a woman alleged that Oberoi had raped her</a> on the pretext of marrying her. Oberoi was said to be in a relationship with the woman since 2016.&nbsp;

He also shot some objectionable videos of the woman and demanded money from her while threatening to release the clips, the police had alleged.&nbsp;

Based on the woman's complaint, Oberoi was arrested on 6th May. Meanwhile, many of Oberoi's friends, including his fellow 'Band Of Boys' members and actress Pooja Bedi rallied in favour of him stating that he could never do something like this.&nbsp;

Oberoi was initially arrested and sent to police custody. He was later moved to 14-day judicial custody even as his bail plea was pending with the sessions court.

In the bail plea, Tiwari contended that the FIR was false, his client (Oberoi) never promised to marry the victim, and the victim lodged another FIR by staging an attack to deny him bail.

While granting relief to Oberoi, the judge noted that the woman, on May 25, "orchestrated" a fake attack on herself and tried to make it look like she was targeted because of her complaint against the actor.

"...To ensure that the applicant (Oberoi) does not get bail, the complainant orchestrated an attack on herself," Justice Dere said.

The HC also noted that the complainant wanted to marry Oberoi, but he declined and began to avoid her.

The messages exchanged between the woman and Oberoi showed that she voluntarily purchased gifts for him and he had not made any demands, the judge said.

The judge also reprimanded police for the way the probe was being conducted.

"Much needs to be said about the manner in which probe has been carried out. The police is yet to seize the mobile phones of the complainant. We expect the police to conduct a free, fair and impartial investigation," Justice Dere said.

Earlier, the sessions court had rejected Oberoi's bail plea.

Bombay High Court grants bail to Karan Oberoi, arrested on charges of rape

Bollywood actor Tanushree Dutta who triggered the #MeToo movement challenging sexual harassment against Nana Patekar and became its torchbearer says she was surprised to hear about the #MenToo movement, which she claims can further endanger women and child victims.

In a statement, the 35-year-old urged people to give deep thought before rendering their ungirdled support&nbsp;to the initiative, which some vested interests&nbsp;are attempting to launch.

"I would like to caution the Indian Public and media against rendering their ungirdled support to the #mentoo movement that seeks to protect the claims that innocent men are being framed by so-called evil women with a vendetta. Some people with clearly vested interests are trying to start in India a revolution that can further endanger the status of the women and child victims of harassment and sexual crimes," she asserted.

The actor believes that altering and empowering the patriarchal society will create a hurdle in the future for women who will be afraid to raise their voices against any wrong done to them.

Elucidating further on the statement, she said,&nbsp;"Under such circumstances empowering the already skewed patriarchy and corrupt male-dominated society could spell trouble and disaster in the future for whistleblowers, journalists, social workers, and female complainants. What I'm trying to say that if this movement persists then any woman who raises her voice or files complaint against bullying, intimidation, harassment, rape or gangrape and does not have enough proof as 99 percent of these crimes happen in private or witnesses back out due to lengthy and exhausting trials or intimidation, these victims could potentially become targets of these men's organizations and groups."

She further added, "Instead of making movements and public protests protecting men who may or may not be innocent at all laws need to be reviewed and formatted so correct and proper justice is done.#metoo was a movement aimed at social cleansing by public disclosure in cases where legal justice is exhausting, difficult or impossible but #Mentoo can put doubt on any woman putting forth a complaint!!"

The #Mentoo movement came into limelight when television actor Karan Oberoi was charged with rape and extortion and several stars came out in support of the actor.

Actor and columnist Pooja Bedi who is one of those defending Karan came up with the initiative of #MenToo movement.&nbsp;
