On Sunday, Central crime branch police booked Meera Mitun under SC/ST prevention of atrocities act for using casteist slur in one of her recent videos. The First information report was filed on a complaint made by Vanni Arasu, Viduthalai Siruthai Katchi. The news grabbed headlines with many slamming the former Bigg Boss participant who also appeared in few Kollywood films.

It all started when Meera Mitun made distasteful comments against singer Dhee and her caste in one of her recent videos. She said that the filmmakers who belong to scheduled caste in Tamil film industry needs to be removed and alleged that they are copying her face. She made the comment while replying to a comment in social media which said that she looks like Dhee of “Enjoy Enjaami” fame.

In the video, a guy who accompanies Meera Mitun, could be seen highlighting a comment which says that she looks like singer Dhee. “Dhee doesn’t look like me. I told you already that the people of Scheduled caste would involve in activities such as stealing face. I am not talking bad about scheduled caste but I am forced to talk bad about those people because they are involving in doing bad activities” she said in the video.

“That’s why they are facing so many problems, no one is causing trouble for them for the sake of it. Scheduled caste directors and people are involving in all the bad activities. I think it is time to chuck out all these schedule caste people from the industry. They are very cheap. Why are you using my face ?” she says in the video and goes on to utter abusive language.

Here’s the video :

Based on the complaint of Vanni Arasu, the police have filed a case under sections 153 (wantonly giving provocation with intent to cause riot), 153 (1) (a), 505 (1) (b) (with intent to cause, or which is likely to cause, fear or alarm to the public), 505 (2) of IPC and several sections under SC/ST prevention of atrocities act.

They will wait till she reach a comfortable place for hideout, once she settled. Then they will announce we have formed a special investigation team to find her and search entire place except where she is. The same pattern they followed for S V Sekhar.
