Nana Patekar's NGO Naam Foundation files defamation suit worth Rs 25 cr against Tanushree Dutta

Firstpost  

In October 2018, Tanushree Dutta accused Nana Patekar of sexually harassing her on the sets of Horn Ok Pleasss in 2008. Nana Patekar’s NGO Naam Foundation has filed a defamation suit worth Rs 25 crore against Tanushree Dutta after she spoke against the organisation at a press event in January, writes Mumbai Mirror. The petition filed by the NGO states remarks made by Dutta “caused enormous damage to the foundation’s reputation.” The NGO claims Patekar and Makarand Anaspure have been working for the betterment of farmers in drought affected areas. Justice Menon did not refute Naam Foundation’s claims but noted allegations against the NGO by Dutta were “defamatory.” The court further said there were no indications of the NGO being a “fly-by night operator.” “That pending the hearing and final disposal of the present suit, this Hon’ble court be pleased to restrain the defendant from further publishing or using in any way the said defamatory press conference or its contents to the plaintiff’s reputation with respect to siphoning of funds, bribery, subverting police and judicial system, collecting funds on false pretext, improper maintaining of the plaintiff’s accounts,” read the court order.
