A court today transferred to Indore a case filed in neighbouring Mhow town against Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra by her former secretary in connection with alleged threats by underworld don Chhota Shakeel following a dispute over payment of commission.

Accepting the application moved by Priyanka and her father Ashok Chopra, Chief Judicial Magistrate A P Rahul transferred the case from Mhow to a local court in Indore, her counsel Chandrashekhar Raikwar told.

In her plea, Priyanka had voiced fears that a law and order problem might arise if she and her father Ashok Chopra travelled by road to appear before the court in Mhow, around 24 km from here, for the next hearing on February 22 in reponse to a summon.

She also referred to protests staged against her in Mhow, while seeking the transfer.

The Mhow court had issued summons to Priyanka and her father on a case filed by her former Secretary Prakash Jaju, who alleged that Chhota Shakeel had made threatening calls on their behalf following a dispute related to payment of Rs 1.37 crores as commission.
