The summons followed a complaint filed against him concerning remarks made during a performance.Maharashtra Cyber Cell stated that Honey Singh did not appear for questioning on three separate occasions, claiming he was abroad. His request to appear on October 22 was earlier rejected, and he was summoned again for questioning.A senior Cyber Cell official indicated that should Honey Singh fail to appear again, the authorities may initiate a Look Out Circular (LOC) against him. Previously, Honey Singh sought additional time after missing a scheduled appearance on October 5.The complaint centres on alleged vulgar and derogatory remarks made during a concert held on March 1, 2025, at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium. During a hearing on April 2, the bench described the song from which the remarks originated as “highly vulgar, obscene and derogatory towards women,” treating women as objects. Advocate Rupali Panwar argued that the song is accessible on social media platforms including YouTube, posing harm to children, and should be removed immediately.The investigation remains ongoing, with further details yet to be disclosed.
