Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Rajtilak Roshan of Zone 9 informed the media that the complaint was false.

“The complainant has given a false complaint. We checked the entire CCTV footage of the society and found that the actress’ driver was reversing the car from the road into the society when this family was crossing the same lane. The family stopped the car and told the driver that he should check if people were behind the car and an argument started between them,” the DCP said.
