A media report quoted the model’s words,  “These incidents took place between 2013 and 2019. I have accused 11 people but the police have registered an FIR against only nine of them stating they can’t file a complaint against incidents that have taken place outside Mumbai. I met DCP Zone 10 Dr. Maheshwar Reddy on April 1 and thought that I would be able to file a complaint, which will be converted into an FIR immediately but it happened only recently (May 26).”
