The Goa police have filed a charge sheet against model-actor Poonam Pandey and her estranged husband Sam Bombay in connection with a case of allegedly shooting an obscene video in the coastal state in 2020. As per the report of PTI, the charge sheet was filed last week before Judicial Magistrate First Class, Canacona, under various sections pertaining to obscenity, trespassing and circulation of the obscene video, Canacona police inspector Pravin Gawas told PTI on Tuesday.

Pandey and Bombay were in November 2020 booked for allegedly shooting the obscene video at the state-owned Chapoli dam in the Canacona area and circulating it on social media platforms, the official said. Both of them were then arrested and later released on bail. Gawas said the police recorded statements of 39 witnesses, who would be examined by the court during the case trial. Pandey and Bombay have been charged under various Indian Penal Code Sections 447 (criminal trespass), 292, 293 (obscenity) and 294 (reciting or uttering any obscene song or words in public place), as well as provisions of the Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act, 1986 and the Information Technology Act.

For the unversed, actress Poonam Pandey was arrested in North Goa for shooting an obscene video in November 2020. Her arrest came after a complaint was filed against her by the local opposition party, Goa Forward, which had alleged that Pandey had participated in a "porn" photoshoot on a property owned by the Goa government's Water Resources department.

About the case, the Goa Police on Wednesday filed an FIR against unknown people days after pictures of Poonam's provocative photoshoot at the secluded Chapoli dam site in Canacona appeared on social media. ANI tweeted, "Goa: FIR filed against an unknown person at Canacona PS for shooting vulgar video featuring actress Poonam Pandey. Offence registered under IPC.
