The Supreme Court on Tuesday, April 1, refused to release Ranveer Allahbadia’s passport until the Latent probe is concluded.
The court made the remark while hearing a petition filed by the YouTuber regarding several FIRs lodged against him for his inappropriate comments on the now-deleted episode of Samay Raina’s YouTube show India’s Got Latent.
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta informed the apex court that the investigation in the case would be concluded within two weeks.
“They are saying they will take two weeks to complete. You come after two weeks,” the top court said.
The court also extended its interim relief, ensuring the podcaster remains protected from arrest in FIRs lodged against him in Guwahati, Mumbai, and Jaipur.
