The Maharashtra police are preparing a closure report in relation to the Palghar Facebook case, in which two young women were arrested over comments they had posted protesting the shutdown in the city following the death of Bal Thackeray.

A closure report is usually filed when the police, after investigating a matter thoroughly, come to the conclusion that there is no case against the accused, as the charges levelled against them aren’t applicable. The report is submitted to the court.
