When celebs ran into legal trouble

In a retort of sorts, Pooja Bedi who was booked under the stringent Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, has claimed to have been falsely accused. In a report in Mumbai Mirror, Pooja was quoted as saying, "I have had zero contact with her daughter. I have never met her, nor exchanged any SMS with her. How can the cops book me under Section 12 of the POCSO Act for unwelcome sexual remarks, emails or telephone calls?" Pooja Bedi's daughter, Alia Furniturewalla and late film director Ramanand Sagar's great granddaughter, Saakshi, were involved in a fight during their pub outing which led to their mothers filing a complaint against each other. Both parties had alleged that the other group was drunk and misbehaving. According to the complaint filed by Meenakshi, she was dancing alongside her daughter and a friend when Alia and her friends, celebrating the latter's birthday, began bullying Saakshi. Pooja Bedi on the other hand alleges that her daughter was merely supporting a friend who was being publicly humiliated by Meenakshi, who was drunk.
