| It was alleged that the donation money from 'Satyamev Jayate' is used for masjid construction assistance, etc. |
According to reports, Bollywood actor Aamir Khan has registered a
complaint with the Mumbai police post the defamatory campaign against
him and ‘Satyamev Jayate’ on Facebook.
It has been alleged in the messages on social networking site
facebook.com/AwakIND that when at the end of the show, Aamir asks for
donations for Humanity Trust, the money is used for masjid construction
assistance and placement assistance for Muslim youth.
Aamir however clarified on his official Facebook page that the messages were “malicious… wrong and baseless”.
According to reports Aamir Khan met Mumbai Police Commissioner and
Joint commissioner (law and order) on March 8. The officials have
assured swift investigation and action with the Cyber Cell investigating
the case.
Aamir Khan’s television series ‘Satyamev Jayate’, based on bringing
about awareness on various social issues, started with its second season
on March 2, 2014. The first season which started in May 2012 dealt with
topics like female foeticide, domestic violence and child abuse, while
the second season started with the rise in rape cases and the second on
the law and order and police force in the country.
On March 7 Aamir Khan took to his Facebook page and clarified that he
is associated with Humanity Trust, Hanspukur, West Bengal, not the
other Humanity Trust.
His message read:
Hi Guys,
False and malicious messages are circulating through various
electronic media including Whatsapp, Facebook, Twitter and other social
media networks alleging that donations are being sought in my television
program Satyamev Jayate Season 2, in relation to an entity by the name
of Humanity Trust which is claimed to be working in the field of Masjid
Construction Assistance and placement assistance for Islamic youngsters.
This is entirely false. I would like to clarify that Satyamev Jayate,
in Season 1 was associated with Humanity Trust, Hanspukur, West Bengal
which is a charitable hospital run by Dr. Ajoy Mistry and his mother
Subhashini Mistry. Humanity Trust, Hanspukur, West Bengal is doing
excellent work in the field of health care and provides free medical
facilities to the poor. More information can be found on their website
http://www.humanityhospital.org and our website
http://www.satyamevjayate.in/every-life-is-precious/humanity-trust.aspx.
Please note that Humanity Trust, Hanspukur has nothing to do with
Humanity Trust referred to in the malicious messages. I would like to
clarify that all donations sought in SMJ are used and channelized for
entirely deserving and secular causes, contrary to the content of the
highly mischievous/malicious insinuations in the messages, being
circulated by vested and unscrupulous interest.
These malicious messages are entirely false, wrong and baseless. I
categorically deny that SMJ has anything to do with Humanity Trust as
stated in the malicious messages or that we have called for donations in
the name of the said entity. I urge the members of the public to disregard the said malicious
message. For more information on all NGOs featured on the show, please

Spread the love guys.
Cheers.
Aamir.
