Case against ABCL reverted

Special Correspondent

PANAJI: A sessions court here on Monday dismissed a revision application filed by Mumbai-based Amitabh Bachchan Corporation Limited (ABCL) and four others, including the mega star, against a trial court here in an anti-tobacco case.

It reverted the case to the trial court directing the parties to appear before it on July 18. The case was that Mr. Bachchan appeared in a promo posing with a cigar, the hoardings of which were displayed in Goa and other parts of the country. A complaint filed by National Organisation for Tobacco Eradication contended that the film star had violated the provisions of the law.
