Maharashtra legislator Satyajeet Tambe on Saturday demanded that Mumbai police take motion in opposition to model-actor Poonam Pandey for placing out faux information of her loss of life.

An afternoon after the scoop of her loss of life from cervical most cancers ruled the scoop cycle and ended in intense debate on social media — PTI by no means showed the loss of life in its reporting — 32-year-old Poonam Pandey introduced on Saturday that she was once alive, and the faux information was once printed to unfold “important consciousness” concerning the illness.
Motion will have to be taken in opposition to her as she “made or printed false or deceptive data,” MLC Tambe mentioned in a commentary.
“The inside track of an influencer/mannequin death of cervical most cancers can’t be a method to unfold consciousness concerning the illness. All the episode takes away the intense nature of cervical most cancers and diverts the eye totally to the influencer,” Mr Tambe mentioned.
The actor pulled a prank on most cancers survivors somewhat than elevating consciousness, he added.
