NEW DELHI (AP) - It appears Richard Gere is no longer a wantedman in India.
An attorney says the country's high court has suspended an
arrest warrant issued against Gere last year for allegedly breaking
public obscenity laws.
Gere upset Hindu activists by publicly embracing and kissing
Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty at an AIDS
awareness event in New Delhi. The activists filed three cases
against the pair, charging they had offended India traditional
conservative cultural sensibilities.
A lawyer for Shetty attended today's Supreme Court proceedings
and called the cases a frivolous misuse of the legal process. He
says after today's action, Gere is free to come and go from India
without fear of arrest.
Shetty is a well-known actress in India. She became an
international star after appearing on the British reality show
"Celebrity Big Brother."
