Bailable warrant against Thackeray

A city court on Thursday issued a bailable warrant against Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray for his alleged anti-Muslim statements during his party8217;s anniversary celebrations last year.

Close on the heels of the Sena8217;s success in civic polls here, Thackeray was ordered to be present in the court on March 28, by Metropolitan Magistrate M B Date, who had earlier issued summons to him on three occasions. The complaint against Thackeray was filed by NCP activist Munna Tripathi.
