Mithun Chakraborty's son Mahaakshay, who has been accused of raping a woman, was supposed to get married today. Despite a complaint being launched against him, the bride's family continued to carry on with the wedding nuptials today. However, the police arrived at the wedding venue in a posh hotel in Udhagamandalam (Ooty) in Nilgiris district of Tamil Nadu where Mahaakshay aka Mimo's wedding was scheduled to be held. The bride's family then eventually had to leave, when the investigation team arrived.

Mithun Chakraborty's son has embroiled himself in a huge controversy as a woman has alleged that he raped her and when she got pregnant, gave her abortion pills without her knowledge. The complainant had alleged that Mahaakshay had cheated and raped her after being in physical relation with her for around four years on the pretext of marriage. She also claimed that his mother Yogita Bali had threatened her of dire consequences if she continued the relationship. The complainant also said she moved to Delhi from Mumbai as she feared for her life in view of threats made by Bali and her son.

Special Judge Ashutosh Kumar today granted the relief to Bali and Mahaakshay saying they have deep roots in society and are not likely to abscond. A court in Delhi had earlier this week said prima facie there are sufficient grounds for registration of an FIR against the actor's wife and son, and to proceed further in accordance with the law.
