Sherlyn Chopra filed a complaint against #MeToo accused and ‘Bigg Boss 16’ contestant Sajid Khan at Mumbai’s Juhu police station on October 28. She talked to a section of media stationed outside the police station and alleged that Salman Khan is backing Sajid and she is not receiving much help from the cops.
In a video, Sherlyn 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).’
‘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),’ she said with teary-eyes.
Sherlyn Chopra said that she only wants unbiased judgement in the case.
Sajid Khan was embroiled in the #MeToo controversy in 2018 after multiple women, including Sherlyn, from the industry accused him of sexually harassing them. Sajid is currently one of the participants in the Salman Khan-hosted reality show, ‘Bigg Boss 16’. This is his first appearance following the sexual harassment allegations.
