How did Poonam Pandey really die? Poonam Pandey’s death news True or False?

MUMBAI: How did Poonam Pandey actually die? Is the news about Poonam Pandey’s death true or false? Did Poonam Pandey die due to Cervical Cancer, as claimed by her manager Parul Chawla?

Journalist and publicist Flynn Remedios in a post on ‘X’ (formerly Twitter) has alleged that the news about Poonam Pandey’s death is nothing but a publicity stunt, FAKE and false and that the actor is very much alive.

According to Flynn Remedios, he spoke to police officials in South Goa – where Poonam is an accused in an obscenity case and on bail, and the officials immediately tried to get in touch with Poonam’s family, but all their phones were switched off. Even her lawyers were unaware about her whereabouts or her “death”. A South Goa police official who called Poonam Pandey on her private number said the “dead” Poonam herself answered the phone and said hello, but immediately disconnected after that, probably realising that the “dead” don’t answer calls.

Actor and producer Kamaal Rashid Khan, popularly known as KRK, also asserted that Poonam Pandey’s death was a publicity stunt and that she is alive. Sharing an image of Poonam Pandey, KRK wrote, “Her death news is a publicity stunt. Poonam Pandey is alive.”

Media outlet India Forums posted that a source close to Poonam Pandey claimed that reports of her demise are false, and she is indeed alive. The source said, “The news of Poonam’s death was quite ambiguous. However, Poonam and her team have been setting up an awareness campaign for cervical cancer. The news of her death is a part of that campaign,” the source claimed.

According to Flynn Remedios, Poonam Pandey and her PR team “created” the news about her almost instant death to ensure she gets widespread and tremendous national publicity, and will later possibly use the ruse or excuse that it was all done with the “noble” intention of creating awareness about Cervical Cancer or maybe it was about a social message or some social campaign.

Flynn Remedios via a post on X has requested the Mumbai police to look into the matter of the reported death of the erotica actor, ascertain the facts and register an FIR for creating public mischief and other appropriate sections of the Indian Penal Code as well as the IT Act.
