BHOPAL: An Indore court on Monday issued an arrest warrant against actor Priyanka Chopra's father, Ashok Chopra, after he failed to appear before it in connection with a criminal case on August 18.
Judge U S Mogal had asked Ashok to appear before it for intimidating Prakash Jaju, Priyanka's former secretary. The case was registered in May last year after Jaju alleged that he was receiving life threats from the underworld after he asked Priyanka for Rs 1.36 crore due to him.
Jaju had alleged he was getting threat calls from Karachi-based ganglord Chhota Shakeel at the behest of the actor and her father.
Defence lawyer Chandrasekhar Raekwair had appealed to the court saying Ashok Chopra was suffering from liver cancer and hence and should be excused from appearing before the district sessions court.
