The All Indian Cine Workers Association (AIWCA) has demanded an FIR against Poonam Pandey and her manager for a fake death stunt, deeming it "highly wrong" and "unacceptable." Pandey's 'death' was declared on her official Instagram account, citing cervical cancer, but she later revealed it was a publicity stunt to raise awareness. This action has drawn criticism from various celebrities, including Kangana Ranaut and Karan Kundrra.
Two FIRs have been registered against Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) president Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh under the POCSO Act and for outraging the modesty of a woman following allegations of sexual harassment by women wrestlers. The wrestlers have been protesting against Singh at Jantar Mantar since April 23 and have said they will continue their sit-in until Singh is arrested. The top court directed the Police Commissioner to provide security to a minor, one of the seven petitioners. The matter has been kept pending and the Police Commissioner has been directed to assess the threat perception to the minor girl and provide security to her.
