HOME | SCOOP!! & NEWS | BOLLYWOOD Rakhi Sawant says sorry for obscene gestures21st July 2006 09.05 IST By Agencies Bollywood item girl Rakhi Sawant has pleaded guilty in a case of alleged obscenity in the pre-trial stage. Rakhi has also offered to pay the maximum fine of Rs 1200 prescribed under the law but the court decided to give its ruling on July 28. 
Rakhi on Thursday did not appear in response to summons by a Kolhapur court but her lawyer Jaideep Thakkar filed an application pleading guilty on her behalf and said she was ready to pay fine prescribed under the provisions of Bombay Police Act. Prosecutor objected to Rakhi’s plea saying she has to remain personally present to plead guilty and argued that her lawyer could not plead on her behalf. Rakhi's lawyer argued that under section 51 of Bombay Police Act an accused can plead guilty through his or her advocate and send the fine amount through money order. The court would give its ruling on July 28 whether Rakhi’s plea for accepting guilt should be accepted without insisting on her presence. The chief judicial magistrate had earlier issued warrant asking Rakhi to appear in person before him today on charges of performing in revealing outfits in a stage show, but instead she chose to plead guilty through her lawyer. Rakhi said in Mumbai that she had accepted the guilt without going into the merits of the case because she did not want to travel that far. Police inspector U K Sawant of Shahupuri police station had registered a case against Rakhi alleging that she had worn revealing outfits while performing in a show recently, thereby committing obscenity offence under the provisions of Bombay police Act which covers entire Maharashtra.
