Indian Bengali film star Payel Mukherjee was attacked by a motorcyclist during protests against the Kolkata rape case.
Citizens have taken to the streets, demanding justice and stricter security measures. Protesters are calling for swift punishment for all those involved in the incident.
During these protests, yesterday, Bengali actress Payel Mukherjee was attacked by a motorcyclist in Kolkata. According to the actress, the attacker stopped his motorcycle near her car and asked her to get out of the vehicle.
Payel Mukherjee stated that when she refused to step out due to fear for her safety, the attacker broke the window on the right side of her car, causing her hand to get injured.
In a video message with teary eyes, the actress questioned women’s safety in India, saying, “I don’t know where we stand now. If a woman can be attacked in a crowded street in the evening, just imagine what can happen in a deserted place.
She added that even after the heart-wrenching incident involving the female doctor, there is still no safety for women in Kolkata. “I shudder to think what would have happened if this incident had taken place in a deserted area,” she said.
