Kangana & Rangoli issued third summon by Mumbai Police, asked to appear before Bandra Police on 23-24 Nov

Mumbai Police on Wednesday summoned third notice to Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut and her sister Rangoli Chandel over "objectionable comments on social media to spread communal tension between 2 groups."

Earlier, the Bandra police on November 3 and October 21 issued a notice to the actress and her sister to record their statements in the case.

However, Ranaut's lawyer had then sent a reply to the police station, saying she was in Himachal Pradesh and busy with wedding preparations of her cousin brother.

The Bandra police have now sent a third notice to both of them to remain present at the police station on November 23-24 to record their statements in the case, the official said.

The Bandra Metropolitan Magistrate's court in October ordered the police to investigate a complaint filed by Bollywood casting director and fitness trainer Munawwar Ali Sayyed, referring to tweets and other statements of Ranaut and her sister.

The Bandra police subsequently registered an FIR against Ranaut and her sister under IPC sections 153-A (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, etc), 295-A (deliberate acts hurting religious sentiments) and 124-A (sedition), 34 (common intention).

They had also asked the actress and her sister to appear before the police.
