What Is The fake email ID case all about?
The fake email ID case dates back to 2016 when both Kangana and Hrithik had slapped lawsuits against each other. He had sent a legal notice to Ranaut after she called him 'silly ex'. Roshan had also refuted the fact that he was in an affair with her, and claimed that Kangana was harassing him by sending him hundreds of emails.
However, Hrithik Roshan also alleged that someone else was impersonating him, and sending emails to Ranaut between 2013 to 2014. But Kangana claimed that the said 'fake email' was given to her by Roshan himself.
A case under section 419 (cheating by personation) of IPC and sections 66C (identity theft), 66D (cheating by personation using computer resources) of the Information Technology Act was registered against an unknown person at Cyber Police Station. The cyber cell had also taken Hrithik Roshan's laptop and phone for further investigation.
In December 2020, Roshan's lawyer appeared before the Mumbai police commissioner with regards to the pending probe. After that, the case was then handed over to the Crime Intelligence Unit (CIU).
Kangana Ranaut tweeted about Hrithik Roshan appearing before the crime branch. "Duniya kahan se kahan pahunch gayi magar mera silly ex abhi bhi waheen hai usi modh pe jahan yeh waqt dobara laut ke nahi jane wala ... (The world has changed so much but my silly ex is still caught up in the moment to which the time will never return)," she tweeted in Hindi.
