Yesterday, Mumbai Court allowed television actor Sheezan Khan to travel abroad for the shooting of a TV show. Earlier, TV famed actor Sheezan Khan approaches Vasai court seeking direction from the police to return his passport which was earlier seized during the investigation of Tunisha Sharma's Suicide case.

In his order on Wednesday, Additional Sessions Judge, Vasai, RD Deshpande said Khan’s lawyer Shailendra Mishra had submitted that he was the lead actor in the TV show Ali Baba: Dastaan-E-Kabul’ but lost the project after his arrest in the case and became jobless.

Khan during the hearing, said he has now received an offer for a reality show for which he is required to shoot in South Africa between May 10, 2023, and July 6, 2023. He urged the court to permit him to fly abroad on the grounds that he has a family to support, said the order.

The court held that the actor cannot be prevented from going abroad for the purpose of employment.

“As held by Constitution Bench of Hon’ble Apex Court in the cited case Smt. Maneka Gandhi Vs. Union of India, expression ‘personal liberty’ as enshrined under Article 21 of the Constitution of India includes a right of a citizen to travel abroad and return to the home country without any impediment,” said the court in the order.
