The police arrested Nasir and Omi along with three women at a home in Dhaka’s Uttara on Monday afternoon following the filing of a case by the Dhallywood actor at Savar Police Station against six people.
“The things (case and arrests) happened so fast! I didn’t expect it,” she said, thanking all who supported her.
At a media briefing on Sunday night, Pori Moni alleged she did not get help from the police when she had gone to file a complaint at Banani Police Station after the incident at Dhaka Boat Club on Jun 8.
Pori Moni also alleged many of those who came to know about the incident tried to “sweep it under the rug”.
“I realised in the past four days how hard this fight is. I wish to continue this fight until I get justice. Now I feel reassured and want to finish the fight.”
She said she now has confidence. “Everyone is by my side. I don’t have a reason to be afraid.”
