Kolkata: A man, claiming to be a fan of actress Kangana Ranaut, was on Friday arrested from the city's Tollygunge area for allegedly threatening Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on a social networking site, police said. A team of Mumbai Police with the help of Kolkata Police nabbed Palash Ghosh, in his late 20s, from his Tollygunge residence in the early hours of Friday for allegedly threatening Raut, they said. Ghosh had allegedly threatened the Shiv Sena MP with "dire consequences" on a social networking site following which the Mumbai Police contacted the city cops and arrested the man. The Shiv Sena and the actress were engaged in a war of words after the latter recently likened Mumbai to Pakistan- occupied Kashmir (PoK) and also said she feared Mumbai Police more than "movie mafia".
