On Wednesday, the Income Tax Department has carried out raids at the properties of filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, and Bollywood actor Taapsee Pannu. It was being reported that the raids are in connection with the Indian film production company Phantom Films. Since the IT raids, many of Taapsee’s friends and colleagues from the industry came out in support of her. Taapsee’s boyfriend Mathias Boe has now shared on Twitter that Taapsee’s parents are under stress due to the raids, and he also asked Sports Minister Kiren Rijiju to help.
Mathias Boe is a badminton coach and in his tweet, he mentioned that he is will be representing India for the first time as a coach, and in the meanwhile, Taapsee’s parents are under stress. He wrote that he is in a bit of turmoil, and tagged Sports Minister Kiren Rijiju, asking for his help. “Finding myself in a bit of turmoil. Representing India for the first time as a coach for some great athletes, meanwhile I-T department is raiding Taapsee’s houses back home, putting unnecessary stress on her family, especially her parents. @KirenRijiju please do something.”
Kiren Rijiju responded to this tweet saying that they should stick to their professional duties, and that the subject matter is beyond his or Mathias Boe’s domain. “Law of the land is supreme and we must abide by that. The subject matter is beyond yours and my domain. We must stick to our professional duties in the best interest of Indian Sports," Rijiju tweeted.
