Babita Kar, founder of Bhubaneswar-based NGO Friends Foundation, and her friend Dr Satya Ranjan Samal have lodged the case against Papu Pom Pom with the Sadar police alleging that the comedian abused them.
According to the complaint, Babita Kar was having dinner with her aide Samal at Dayal Hotel recently. Papu Pom Pom reached there with three of his accomplices and started harassing the social activist by verbal abuses. He even threatened to kill her.
Informing about the matter, Cuttack DCP Akhileswar Singh said, “A case has been registered in Sadar PS by an activist from Bhubaneswar.
