Raj Mungase
Raj Mungase, the law student and rapper who was booked by the Thane police over a diss track allegedly aimed at the present Maharashtra government, surfaced on Wednesday after going incommunicado for six days. The 28-year-old said he was given legal aid by the Uddhav Thackeray-led faction of the Shiv Sena, which helped him secure pre-arrest bail. Mungase told mid-day, “I don’t think I have committed any crime. I sing about things that most people are talking about anyway.”
Why are members of the ruling party claiming it is defamation? Current rap songs are full of abuse, so why only am I being targeted?” he asked.
