Adding to the woes of well-known comedian Kapil Sharma, the Mumbai police on Wednesday lodged a fresh FIR against him on the charge of illegal construction activities in a mangroves buffer zone, an activist said.
The December 9 order of Railway Mobile Court's Metropolitan Magistrate Amitabh A. Panchbhai for the FIR came on a plea filed by activist S Daundkar through lawyers Abha Singh and Aditya Pratap.
The FIR was lodged on Wednesday at the Versova police station under the Environment Protect Act, 1986, Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966, and the Indian Penal Code, Daundkar said.
In his plea, Daundkar said Sharma owned a bungalow in SVP Nagar, Oshiwara, Andheri West, where construction of an illegal extra floor was undertaken.
