Salman Khan sued KRK for defamatory remarks but not for his Radhe review, clarifies legal team

Salman Khan had filed a defamation complaint against actor Kamaal R Khan (KRK). The notice was sent to KRK by the superstar's legal team. KRK shared the front page of the notice on Twitter on May 25. He also asked Salman's father Salim Khan to withdraw the case. Now, Salman's legal team has shared a statement on the matter.

In the statement, the team clarified that the defamation case was filed against KRK for "publishing and endorsing defamatory allegations" against Salman Khan and not for his Radhe review.

The statement read as, "Mr Kamaal R Khan, the Defendant, has put out a series of tweets and videos alleging that Mr Salman Khan has sued him for defamation because the Defendant reviewed the film, Radhe. This is incorrect. The suit has been filed as the



Defendant has been publishing and endorsing defamatory allegations, including that Mr Salman Khan is corrupt, that he and his brand Being Human are involved in fraud, manipulation and money laundering transactions, that he and Salman Khan Films are dacoits.

"The Defendant has been spreading malicious falsehoods and defaming Mr. Salman Khan consistently over several months, clearly with a view to draw attention to himself. Mr Kamaal R Khan’s lawyer made a statement in Court today that Mr Kamaal R. Khan "will not put any remarks of defamatory nature against plaintiff on social media till next date". The Hon’ble Court has been pleased to pass an order taking into account this statement made by Mr Kamaal R Khan’s lawyer.” - DSK Legal, advocates for Mr Salman Khan and Salman Khan Ventures."
