Popular comedian Samay Raina has been summoned again by Maharashtra Cyber Cell in connection with an earlier investigation. The comedian, known for his online content, is reportedly facing issues related to a complaint filed against him. However, Raina is currently in the US for work and has stated that he cannot appear for questioning in India. His legal team is expected to handle the matter remotely.
The summons comes after Raina was earlier questioned by the Cyber Cell in a case related to his social media activity, though specific details of the charges remain unclear. In a statement, Raina clarified that he was not involved in any illegal activities and expressed his willingness to cooperate with the investigation upon his return to India. His team is reportedly in talks with authorities to initiate necessary legal proceedings while he is abroad.
The case has drawn attention to the increased scrutiny of online influencers and comedians, especially with regards to their social media posts. It also raises questions about the liability of digital content creators in the evolving landscape of online expression and legal boundaries. As the case progresses, it is expected that further light will be shed on the intersection of comedy, freedom of expression, and cyber regulation in India.
