Sana Raees Khan on the quashing of FIR against Tanu Weds Manu producer: This judgment protects countless others from malicious prosecution
Sana Raees Khan and Shailesh R Singh The Supreme Court recently quashed a cheating case filed against Bollywood producer Shailesh R Singh, known for films like Tanu Weds Manu . The court observed that monetary recovery cannot be sought through criminal proceedings or police intervention, stating that such disputes should be resolved through appropriate civil mechanisms. The bench also expressed displeasure at the manner in which the Allahabad High Court dealt with Singh's petition to quash the FIR lodged by complainant Kunal Jain. T he dispute arose after the film Lady Killer, produced by Singh, underperformed at the box office. The complainant, who had invested money in the project, allegedly failed to recover his investment with interest and subsequently filed a criminal case. Advocate Sana Raees Khan, representing Singh, argued that the FIR stemmed from a civil dispute that had been wrongly given a criminal colour. She pointed out that Singh is the co-founder and production head of a company engaged in the production of motion pictures, and that a commercial disagreement was being misrepresented as a criminal offence. Khan told the court that the FIR did not disclose any prima facie case of cheating or criminal intent. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas in Dubai | Search Ads Get Info Undo She argued, 'In order to constitute the offence of cheating, there must be evidence indicating that the accused intended to deceive the complainant right from the beginning. A plain reading of the FIR, which alleges that an amount of ₹9.56 crore is due from the petitioner, fails to establish any element of criminality. ' She further highlighted that the High Court had directed Singh to undergo mediation and deposit ₹25 lakh in advance with the complainant before mediation proceedings — a move she said prejudged the outcome and undermined the very purpose of the quashing petition. Commenting on the outcome, Sana told us, 'This landmark judgment not only protects my client Shailesh Singh but also offers relief to countless others facing malicious prosecutions. I am proud to have led this legal battle and secured a precedent that upholds the sanctity of criminal justice. It's a verdict that will resonate far beyond this case. I remain deeply respectful of the judiciary's wisdom.'

Middle-East Conflict: Who is Mossad's ‘Female Spy' Behind Irans Destruction?
Israel-Iran Tensions: As both nations continue exchanging aerial strikes, Iran's intelligence agencies and Israel's Mossad are engaged in the tensions as well, and over the past 24 hours, one name has reportedly surfaced. That face is of a female Mossad agent dubbed the 'Lady Killer' in Iran. But who is this operative, and how did she allegedly become a game-changer for Israel in Tehran? In today's DNA, Rahul Sinha, Managing Editor of Zee News, analysed the alleged female spy of Israel's agency: Watch Full DNA Episode Here: #DNAWithRahulSinha | मोसाद की 'लेडी किलर' का 'ऑपरेशन ईरान'. ईरान की बर्बादी में किस 'औरत' का हाथ? मोसाद की एक महिला जासूस के बड़े खेल का खुलासा हुआ है, जिसने ईरान में घुसपैठ की.... इसके बाद शिया इस्लाम कबूल किया और देश के बड़े अफसरों के घरों तक पहुंच बना ली...और ईरान की बर्बादी… — Zee News (@ZeeNews) June 20, 2025 Over the last eight days, nine top Iranian military commanders — from army chiefs to IRGC leaders — have been eliminated by Israel. Every time, Israeli jets targeted the exact building where these officials were present, delivering fatal strikes. Faced with the loss of so many senior commanders, Iranian intelligence went on high alert. Once they began connecting the dots between these strikes, one name emerged — Katherine Perez Sheked. Iranian intelligence discovered that Mossad had planted a female spy named Katherine in Tehran, and it was through her that Mossad had been allegedly receiving pinpoint information on the top Iranian military leadership. The Iranian agencies have not captured her. According to VAJA, Iran's intelligence agency, the "spy" is a French national trained by Mossad. After completing her training, she came to Iran and expressed interest in Shia Islam. Katherine even converted, after which she started moving among the wives of senior Iranian officers. Visiting their homes and winning their trust, she quietly began gathering intelligence on Iran's top commanders. Katherine kept sending this information to Mossad, which then directed the Israeli air force to the precise locations where Iranian commanders would be. Other Female Spies In History Intelligence agencies have reportedly used women operatives worldwide for complex missions. First on that list is Indian-origin Noor Inayat Khan. During World War II, Noor joined Britain's SOE and was sent to Nazi-occupied Paris to relay information from the French resistance. From June to September 1943, she carried out her work in secret until she was eventually arrested by German forces. In 1944, she was executed. After World War II, during the Cold War, the CIA relied on a spy named Yona Montague. A former bank employee, she was placed in banks across Eastern Europe — then under Soviet influence — and supplied vital information to the CIA for 15 years. She was never caught and retired from the agency in 1993. And during the 1973 Arab-Israeli War, there was Heba Selim, an Egyptian who spied for Mossad. After marrying an Egyptian officer, she passed on critical information — including air defense layouts — to Mossad, allowing Israel to inflict serious damage. Heba was eventually caught by Egyptian police in 1974 and executed alongside her husband.
