In connection with a case of allegedly recording an obscene video in the coastal state in 2020, Goa police have filed a charge sheet against model-actor Poonam Pandey and her estranged spouse Sam Bombay. According to Canacona police inspector Pravin Gawas, the charge sheet was filed last week before Judicial Magistrate First Class, Canacona, under various sections pertaining to obscenity, trespassing, and circulation of the obscene video.
According to the official, Pandey and Bombay were arrested in November 2020 for allegedly recording the obscene video at the state-owned Chapoli dam in the Canacona area and circulating it on social media platforms. After that, they were both arrested and released on bail. The police recorded the statements of 39 witnesses, according to Gawas, who will be cross-examined by the court during the case trial.
Pandey and Bombay have been charged under Indian Penal Code Sections 447 (criminal trespass), 292, 293 (obscene song or words in public place), and 294 (reciting or uttering any obscene song or words in a public place), as well as the Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act, 1986, and the Information Technology Act.
