SRK gets clean-chit in Wankhede controversy
Credits:

In a sign of relief for actor Shah Rukh Khan, the Mumbai police have declared that no "cognizable offence" was committed by Khan during a scuffle after an IPL match in 2012 at Wankhede stadium. A social activist filed a complaint in a Mumbai Metropolitan Magistrate with regard to the incident, seeking action against Khan; he had earlier filed a complaint in the HC.

The scuffle at Wankhede in IPL-5

Following his team KKR's 32-run victory against MI, SRK got indulged in a ruckus with the security staff and officials of the MCA at Wankhede stadium. The brawl ensued after the security officials stopped a bunch of kids from entering the grounds to celebrate after the match was over. The MCA alleged that when SRK was prevented from entering the grounds, he became abusive.

Banned from Wankhede for 5 years

Subsequently, the MCA had filed a police complaint, accusing the superstar of being drunk and misbehaving. The Association's managing committee, then headed by the late Vilasrao Deshmukh banned SRK from entering the MCA premises, including the Wankhede stadium, for five years. Deshmukh had said, "I was told he used abusive language. They tried to pacify him but he wasn't in the mood."

Shukla's displeasure

Post the imposition of the ban, IPL chairman, Rajeev Shukla expressed his displeasure by tweeting, "It is unfortunate that a team owner is not able to watch an IPL match."

SRK denied any misconduct and stated that he reacted only when his kids were 'mishandled' by the security staff and refused to apologize for the incident. Instead, he had stated that the security officials should apologize to him for their misbehaviour towards him and his kids. He stated that his son and his classmates wanted to play on the sidelines but were ill-treated.

SRK repents

A week after the ban was imposed, SRK released a statement- "I want to apologize to the kids for my misbehaviour at MCA. I apologize to all who saw me differently. I shouldn't have behaved in that manner."

SRK's ban from Wankhede finally revoked

In a managing committee meeting that was held on Sunday, MCA decided to invalidate the five-year ban on SRK from Wankhede Stadium. MCA decided to revoke the ban which was supposed to be lifted in 2017 as SRK had already served a considerable period (3 years) of it with dignity. The move came as a relief to the BCCI and IPL chairman, Rajiv Shukla.
