Gauahar Khan rubbishes her attacker's claims over slapping episode
3:53 PM
IANS (MID-DAY; January 5, 2015)
Gauahar Khan's attacker has alleged that the actress paid him for slapping her in public. But the actress says it is the 'most ridiculous claim'.
In November, Gauahar, who was hosting a reality show in Mumbai, was slapped by Akil Mallik for reportedly wearing skimpy clothes.
And now, Malik has alleged that he was paid to slap her and that she had promised to get him a role in a film.
"This is my one and only response to the most ridiculous claim made by an accused who attacked me, went to jail for it and came out only to prove even more what a threat he is to normal living in India for girls, and also the weak stature even the media gives to a girl who especially belongs to the film or TV world," Gauahar said in a statement.
"What this man is claiming is a clear attempt to get away from the heinous crime he committed. It's absolutely bogus and a very poorly staged and filmy story obviously recommended by people who believe that our law will let him get away with such baseless stories," she added.
The winner of TV reality show also shared that she doesn't know the attacker. "I have never in my life met this man before I saw him charging at me on 'India's Raw Star' finale. I don't want to give him the two seconds of fame he desperately wants by clarifying any of his rubbish claims," she said.
"I trust the law fully and know that, that's where I'll get justice for the trauma I have had to go through because of his desperate need to wanting to be famous at the cost of my pain and name."
"I can prove every point made by him stand untrue with proof, but this guy only deserves to face the law alone. He's a liar and so shall be proved in the court of law," she added.
How could a guy walk up to Gauahar & slap her? What if he had a knife or acid in hand-Kushal Tandon

Actress Gauahar Khan is
shaken up after a guy from the audience went up to the stage and slapped
her during the finale shoot of TV show India's Raw Star at Filmcity.
Gauahar refused to comment on the incident, saying, “The matter is legal and I can't comment on it.“ Her boyfriend actor Kushal Tandon, however, said, “What happened is disgusting. It is the production house's fault as it's their responsibility to ensure the security of the cast and crew. I feel the security wasn't tight enough or else how would a guy just walk up to a celebrity like this? What if he had a knife or acid in hand? There should have been bouncers on the stage. We are going to take it up strongly; we will not leave this guy!“
Meanwhile, the accused, 24-year-old Mohammed Akil Mallik, has been arrested by the police. A source from the production house said, “He admitted that he was observing Gauahar since three days. He said he was upset because of the short dresses that she wore to the shoot.“
