The Supreme Court has fined comedian Samay Raina and four other comedians Rs 3 lakh each in the disability jokes case. The court said Raina failed to keep promises made during earlier hearings and had “taken the court for a ride.” The comedians must pay the fine within two weeks, issue a public apology, and submit compliance reports. They were also ordered to hold two comedy shows every month to raise money for children with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). The court warned that the fine could increase if they fail to follow its directions.
