After making the allegations in a Facebook post without naming the suspect on Sunday, she held a media briefing later in the night and accused businessmen Nasir U Mahmood, entertainment and cultural affairs secretary of Dhaka Boat Club, of assaulting her, bdnews24 reported. Pearl V Puri Alleged Rape Case: The Actor Sent To 14 Days Judicial Custody After Being Arrested.

"Where will I seek justice?” the post read. “I couldn't find it in the last four days… Everyone listens to the details and never follows through. I'm a girl, I'm an actor, but before that, I'm a human being. I can't remain silent,” she said in the post in Bangla. Sohel Rana, an assistant IGP, said the police will take action when the actress contacts them. Pori Moni rose to fame fast after joining the movie industry in 2015. She has played the lead female role in two dozen Bangladeshi movies. Forbes magazine last year named her as one of 100 Digital Stars of Asia.
