Chennai: Chennai police have summoned actress Meera Mithun tomorrow to appear in connection with casteist remarks.
Reports say that cases have been filed under various sections and she may arrested. During an interview with a YouTube channel, Meera said that all the scheduled caste film workers should be chucked out of the industry.
“The members of the SC community face trouble mostly because they are indulged in illegal activities and crime. No one will unnecessarily speak ill of someone without a reason,” she said.
Meera even accused the directors and the members of the SC community for wrongful activities in the industry.
Based on a complaint from Vanni Arasu, the deputy general secretary of Viduthalai Siruthaigal Katchi, the Chennai police have booked Meera under seven sections including 153, 153 A(1) (a), 505 (1) (b) of the IPC and other sections of the SC and ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.
