Mumbai Police on Saturday arrested former Bigg Boss contestant, actor Ajaz Khan for indecent and objectionable religious remarks. Khan reportedly used controversial language during a Facebook Live video. A case was registered against him at Khar police station.

Khan went live from his Facebook account at 12.30 pm on Wednesday and made remarks about how the Muslim community has faced a backlash and is "being held responsible for everything." He then claimed that a political party was behind the controversy and added that communal tones were being added to the current scenario to deflect public attention from the Coronavirus pandemic.
