Actor Tanushree Dutta on Thursday lashed out on the "corrupt" system after Mumbai Police informed a local court that it has no evidence to prosecute Nana Patekar in a molestation case lodged against him by her.
The suburban Oshiwara police on Wednesday filed a 'B Summary' report before a metropolitan magistrate in Andheri, Deputy Commissioner of Police Paramjit Singh Dahiya told PTI.
A 'B Summary' report is filed when police do not find any evidence against the accused person to file a charge sheet and seek trial.
Dutta's complaint against Patekar last year sparked a nationwide '#MeToo' movement on social media.
In a statement, the actor questioned the police's rush to file a 'B Summary' report but said she is "neither shocked nor surprised" by it.
"Our witnesses have been silenced by intimidation and fake witnesses have been put forth to weaken the case. What was the rush to file a B summary report when all of my witnesses have not even recorded their statements yet??
"I'm tired of fighting alone against oppressors, bullies and a corrupt system. I have better things to do in life with my talent and skill set and I need to focus on those but please don't take this example to mean that you will not be heard when you speak up!
