Actor-producer Armaan Kohli has been booked for assault by the Santacruz police on Sunday, 3 June. A case has been registered against the former Bigg Boss contestant for allegedly hitting his live-in parter, Neeru Randhawa.
“We have registered a case after the woman gave us a statement on Sunday night. There was an argument between the two over some monetary issue after which the complainant claims the actor assaulted her,” said an officer to Hindustan Times.
The police received a call from a hospital where Neeru was being treated for her injuries on Sunday night. “She had also received head injuries for which she had gone to the hospital. We recorded her statement after which it was clear that Kohli had allegedly assaulted her post an argument,” said another officer.
The couple were reportedly arguing over money when the actor lost his temper and hit her.
“We went to the residence where the complainant was allegedly beaten but Kohli was not present there. We are looking for him for further interrogation. His statement will be recorded and past records will be checked. No arrest has been made yet,” added the officer.
“Our team could not find Kohli at the residence. He is absconding and a team is searching for him,” said Shantanu Pawar, senior police officer from Santacruz police station.
Kohli has been booked under section 326 of the Indian Penal Code for voluntarily causing grievous injury.
