Tanushree Dutta has finally opened up about Nana Patekar receiving a clean chit over her #MeToo accusation and she has some bold statements to make
Tanushree Dutta has often been vocal and positive about her #MeToo charge on Nana Patekar. The actor however received a clean chit on Thursday since the cops filed B report summary in the case. B report summary is filed when enough evidence cannot be produced for a case.
Tanushree Dutta's lawyer said that he would take the case further and file writ petition before Bombay High Court. He went on to blame the cops as he said, "I have not received any official information from Oshiwara police station about classification of offence (Summary Report) from police on behalf of Tanushree Dutta, if police files any B or C classification of summery report, that can not be final. We can oppose before court and after hearing if court satisfies then again it can be directed police to reinvestigation or further investigations. Police acted negligently to protect Nana Patekar, many witnesses statement not yet recorded. One Shyni Shetty statement has been recorded partly. Police have not investigated properly so we are opposing summery reports and also going to file writ petition before Bombay High Court."
After his response, Tanushree Dutta made a statement which are filled with some bold accusations and questions for the opponent who gave Nana the clean chit. She however maintained that she is neither shocked nor surprised since women in India are used to such behaviour.
Read her whole statement ahead:
1. A corrupt police officer?
)
"A corrupt police force and legal system giving a clean chit to an even more corrupt person Nana who has been accused even in the past of bullying, intimidation and harassment by several women in the film industry."
2. Witnesses silenced?
)
"Our witnesses have been silenced by intimidation and fake witnesses have been put forth to weaken the case."
3. Why the rush to file B summary?
)
"What was the rush to file a B summary report when all of my witnesses have not even recorded their statements yet??"
4. Neither shocked nor surprised, only used to
)
"I'm neither shocked nor surprised being a woman in India. This is something we all have got used to."
5. If Alok Nath can get clean chit, Nana Patekar had a lesser offensive crime
)
"I mean if rape accused Alok Nath got a clean chit and returned to movies then surely it was not going to be difficult for harrassment accused Nana Patekar to get himself or shall we say buy himself a clean chit to continue to bully hapless young women."
6. The proof still exists
)
"But the proof is often in the pudding and a gentle reminder to the Indian public to watch the video of my car being mercilessly attacked and broken while me and my family tried to escape from these monsters on Horn Ok Pleasss set 10 years ago."
7. Tanushree Dutta's last words on the matter
)
"After this if you still decide to watch their movies and support then it's your bad karma. You are a corrupt people with no justice but Gods' justice will rain on you someday hopefully and will avenge for all the humiliation, insult, harrassment, judgement and trauma I have had to endure in the last 10+ years because of this attitude. That is my hope finally, for a life without hope is like a candle without fire. I pray that I never have to deal with this kind of toxicity ever again in life. I'm tired of fighting alone against oppressors, bullies and a corrupt system. I have better things to do in life with my talent and skillset and I need to focus on those but please dont take this example to mean that you will not be heard when u speak up!! Continue to expose these creeps through social media and other platforms so that in future people would think twice before troubling an innocent young girl. I still believe by the way that I will get justice and victory will be mine!! How..only time will tell."
