THE TIMES OF INDIA - Actor Imran Khan has been asked by Mumbai Police to leave India by October 28, news agency IANS reported quoting police on Thursday.
Police have issued a notice to the Delhi Belly actor under the relevant provision of the Immigration Act, citing his status as a non-Indian citizen.
Aamir Khan's nephew Imran Khan had taken part in a protest at Mumbai’s August Kranti Maidan demanding the resignation of chief election commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.
Police had also briefly detained him during the protest.
The actor also shared a picture on social media showing him sitting inside a police van.
Mumbai Police said action was taken against the actor under the relevant provision of the law because he participated in the protest despite not being an Indian citizen.
The protest coincided with the dates of CJP’s proposed demonstration at New Delhi’s Jantar Mantar on October 10. However, a Centre's crackdown in the national capital largely curtailed the planned protest.
With 35,000 security personnel deployed, internet services were suspended and metro services disrupted in parts of New Delhi. The crackdown also led to over 7,000 detentions in national capital, including key opposition leaders such as Arvind Kejriwal, Mamata Banerjee and Pinarayi Vijayan.
