Actor Imran Khan Challenges FRRO Order to Leave India

What Happened

Actor Imran Khan Pal, a US citizen and OCI cardholder, moved the Bombay High Court on October 17 challenging an FRRO notice ordering him to leave India by October 28. The October 14 notice alleges violations of the Immigration and Foreigners Act, 2025, following his participation in an October 10 protest in Mumbai. Khan has sought to have the notice quashed and its enforcement stayed.

Key Takeaways

Khan argues he was not given a prior hearing and that the notice does not adequately identify the alleged violations. These are claims in his court petition, not findings by the Bombay High Court.
