Tanushree questions Modi after Patekar gets clean chit in harassment case
The actress accused police of taking bribe from Patekar and not investigating the matter properly.
MUMBAI (Dunya News) – Bollywood actress Tanushree Dutta has raised question over Prime Minister (PM) Narendra Modi’s promise of corruption-free country after Indian veteran actor Nana Patekar gets clean chit in harassment case.
In a latest statement, the actress accused police of taking bribe from the Patekar and not investigating the matter properly. She asked Modi, “Why the daughters in the country led by him have to face such harassment when he talks highly of things like Ram-Rajya.”
“The Mumbai Police lied in its report to the court that my complaint with CINTAA did not have sexual harassment in it. They were given the copy of my handwritten 2008 complaint to CINTAA that clearly mentioned sexual harassment corroborating my 2018 FIR. In 2008 they had refused to even take my FIR and twisted and manipulated the complaint to protect the accused. Also, everyone remembers that CINTAA had issued a written apology for not addressing that complaint. This apology by CINTAA was widely published in media and we even gave the cops a copy of that apology to prove that. This is corruption at its grossest level. How can they twist evidence like that and completely turn it against me and in favour of accused??” she added.
Tanushree said, “This harassment incident took away my job, career and livelihood and I had to start all over again in life in a new country. Because in India clearly justice, law and order is for sale and criminals can buy themselves clean chit by spending crores on bribing law and judiciary whereas women who get harassed, abused and attacked and mob lynched in public get to be called false and malicious if they speak up and put forward a complaint. How much money did everyone make for this report that squashed my case?? Nana Patekar’s corrupt Naam foundation that takes thousands of crores of rupees from government, Indians, NRIs, local and foreign organisations in the name of suicidal drought hit Indian farmers every year and only gives 15,000 rupees to 200 dead farmer widows once a year in a publicised event and no records and works to prove the expenditure of all of those huge funds whatsoever can easily afford to bribe the whole country to get a clean chit for Nana and other accused.”
“Modi ji..what happened to a corruption free India?? A daughter of the country gets harassed by a serial offender, attacked by a mob in public, denied justice over and over again and her name is maligned, she is threatened, pressurised, her career is destroyed and literally driven out of the country to live a life of anonymity and your police force say her complaint is false and malicious!!! Yehi hai apka Raam Rajya?? Being born in a devout hindu family maine toh suna tha ki Raam naam satya hai toh phir kyun is desh mein asatya aur adharm ki bar bar Vijay hoti rahi hai?? Jawab dijiye mujhe,” she went on to say.
