No injuries or wrongdoing in accident involving Raveena Tandon's car: Police

Nobody was injured in the accident involving actress Raveena Tandon's car, according to the police. They stated that the complainant filed a false complaint against the actress and created fake videos.

The Khar police reported that the actress's driver was reversing the car inside the society when four family members walking on the road stopped the driver. The family started arguing with the driver, insisting that he should check behind before reversing. When actress Raveena Tandon came to see what was happening and tried to protect her driver, the mob attacked and abused her.

Speaking with Mid-Day, a senior Mumbai Police official said, "The complainant gave a false complaint in the alleged video. We checked the entire CCTV footage of the society and found that the actress's driver was reversing the car from the road into the society when this family was crossing the same lane. The family stopped the car and told the driver that he should check if people are behind the car before reversing. This argument started between them."

"This argument escalated into abusive language, and actress Raveena Tandon arrived at the spot to check what had happened with her driver. The actress tried to protect the driver from the mob; however, the mob started abusing her. Both Raveena Tandon and the family went to the Khar police station and gave written complaints. Later, they both also submitted letters stating they did not want to register any complaints," the official said.

He further stated, "Nobody was injured in this incident. We checked the CCTV footage, and the car did not hit anyone. The actress was not drunk."
