He, however, added a note of caution. “Social media offers great freedom for victims to speak up, however we should be careful in creating a new internet justice system, in case it’s misused,” Rahman said.
In the wake of the #MeToo movement, several prominent names have been accused of sexual misconduct. These names include Alok Nath, Sajid Khan, Vikas Bahl, Anu Malik, and others. It all started when Tanushree Dutta accused veteran actor Nana Patekar of sexually harassing her on the sets of the Horn OK Pleassss.
