Separately, Shiv Sena Beed district president Sushil Galdhar filed charges against Kasale for making defamatory statements about Sanjay Shirsat, the state minister for social justice. The two new FIRs were registered at the cyber police station in Beed late on Friday, 22 minutes apart, adding to his existing legal challenges. He previously faced multiple FIRs regarding allegations of poll manipulation in Beed district and accusations against senior police officers through social media videos. Additionally, he faces a cheating case for not returning money allegedly taken from a builder. After receiving bail in one case over a week ago, Kasale released a video alleging VIP treatment for Valmik Karad, the primary accused in Massajog sarpanch Santosh Deshmukh's abduction and murder case, inside prison. Prison authorities dismissed these claims, noting that Kasale was in Harsul Central Prison in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, while Karad was detained in a Beed facility. Police reports indicate that Shiv Sena's Beed district chief Swapnil Galdhar lodged the first Friday night case. The complaint states that Kasale made defamatory statements on social media against Maharashtra minister Sanjay Shirsat, an additional director general rank police officer, and a Gujarati businessman.

Local social activist Mohan Aghav filed the second FIR, accusing Kasale of attempting to create communal discord and foster enmity between communities through his social media content. "Both FIRs were registered under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and relevant sections of the IT Act. Once the Mumbai police are done questioning Kasale, we will take legal steps to take our investigation forward," said a senior police officer from Beed. Kasale, formerly with the Beed cybercrime, has a history of disciplinary issues and faces numerous criminal cases registered in recent months in Beed, Parli, and Ambajogai. These additional FIRs are expected to increase his legal difficulties.
