Actor Sri Reddy, who shook the nation with her semi nude protest against sexual harassment, claimed that if Pawan Kalyan doesn’t stop his fans, she will go to court. According to The Hindu, the actor said at a press conference on Wednesday, “I am going to file defamation cases against all those who abused me on social media in the court of law.”

Sri Reddy has also claimed that the Committee Against Sexual Harassment, put in place by  Movie Artistes Association, was a farce.

The actor was present with her lawyer, MK Kalanidhi, where she also stated that women trolls would be shown mercy. She also wondered why the Movie Artistes Association is supporting Pawan Kalyan through all this. She said, “I am surprised that the so-called MAA is supporting Pawan Kalyan and no action was taken against his supporters and fans who were against the media.”

The actor also pointed out that Committee Against Sexual Harassment (CASH) is a farce; the reason being the members of the committee. Rana Daggubati happens to be one of the members of this committee. Sri Reddy had earlier alleged that it was his brother Abhiram Daggubati who has sexually exploited her in one of their film studio. Hence, she would not accept CASH. “Rana’s brother Abhiram Daggubati resorted to sexual exploitation in one of their studios. How can they include him in the committee?” she asked.

Sri Reddy was also accompanied by two other character artistes, a person called Sona Rathore. She also spoke about how she has fallen prey to online abuse and claimed that she faced crass and crude comments by alleged fans of the superstar.
