On Saturday, Sherlyn Chopra in cue of the #MeToo rage registered a statement to the Juhu police against director Sajid Khan. She spoke to the media that police is not supporting her on this front and mentioned that no one could harm Sajid Khan as Salman Khan is with him.
In a paparazzo video, the actor said, “Sajid Khan ke sar par kisi aur nahin, Salman Khan sir ka hanth hain. Unke hontein, Sajid Khan ka koi baal tak baka nahin kar sakta hai (Sajid Khan is being protected by Salman Khan. No one can touch him).” She also mentioned that her calls went unanswered after she made her complaint. meanwhile, she also requested a female officer to register her statement.
“Maine Assistant police commissioner ko call kiya and bola ‘Juhu Police meri madad nahin kar rahi hain. Pata nahin kya majbori rahi hongi, upar se koi dabab ayaa hoga ki mera statement na liya jayein. Mai yehi soch rahi hu ki agar ek celebrity ke sath aisa ho sakata hain toh ek aam mahila ke sath kya kuch nahin hota hoga (I have informed Assistant police commissioner that Juhu Police isn’t helping me I don’t know why my statement is not being taken, there might be some kind of pressure against it I wonder what can happen to an ordinary woman if a celebrity is being treated in such a way) ,” Sherlyn averred breaking down into tears.
It all started on 2018, when Sajid Khan was alleged of sexual misconduct towards actors he worked with. The actors include Saloni Chopra, Aahana Kumra and Mandana Karimi and others.
