Bollywood actor Priyanka Chopra’s private secretary Prakash Jaju withdrew his petition against the actor from Supreme Court on Friday. Jaju, in his petition, had challenged Chopra’s discharge by the Madhya Pradesh High Court in a criminal intimidation case.After the counsel appearing for both parties said that the matter had been settled, a Bench comprising Justices C K Thakker and Altamas Kabir accepted Jaju’s plea to withdraw the petition. Earlier, Jaju had moved the petition contending that the High Court had wrongly discharged the actor of criminal intimidation charges while acknowledging the same against her father Ashok Chopra and underworld don Chhota Shakeel. Following this, Chopra had also filed a caveat before the apex court that she be heard before any order was passed on Jaju’s petition.Jaju had filed a criminal intimidation case in January this year, before a magistrate in Mhow against Priyanka Chopra, Ashok Chopra and Chhota Shakeel after the actor and her father allegedly used the services of the don to intimidate him following a financial dispute.
