On Monday, the Bombay High Court heard a case of sedition against Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut. After the hearing, the High Court has given a big relief to actress Kangana Ranaut. At the same time, the Mumbai Police has been disappointed in this case. In the treason case, the Bombay High Court has stayed Kangana's arrest till 25 January.  The HIgh court also directed the city police not to summon the both for questioning till then.

Ranaut and her sister appeared before Bandra police in Mumbai on January 8 for recording their statement in the case, pursuant to an assurance given to HC in November last year.

The FIR, under sedition charges and for allegedly ''trying to create hatred and communal tension'' through their posts on social media, was registered pursuant to orders passed by the Bandra magistrate's court, directing the police to carry out an inquiry against Ranaut and her sister following a complaint lodged against them.

A division bench of Justices S S Shinde and ManishPitale was hearing a petition filed by the sisters, seeking to quash the FIR and the order passed by the magistrate on October 17 last year.  Public prosecutor Deepak Thakare informed the court on Monday that the petitioners appeared before the police on January 8 from 1 pm to 3 pm.
