Pearl V Puri case: Victim's mother Ekta Sharma finally breaks silence

The case surrounding actor Pearl V Puri has shook one and all where many have slammed the saga with a few supporting the actor while a few others slamming the ones who are supporting them.

Earlier, actor Divya Khosla Kumar came out with the name of the victim's mother and father and laid some facts from her side. This, however, has also been received with a mixed response.

But after all this time, and all these instances, the victim's mother actor Ekta Sharma has finally spoken out as she issued a statement which read, “A lot of people are calling and asking me to come to the media and speak. My silence should not be construed as my weakness. My respect and faith in the judiciary has made me take this step. Many people have chosen to ridicule me and my daughter in public which is not permissible by law.” She added, “Publicising a victims name in public is an offence. I choose to remain silent as I am not the complainant in the case. Whatever is true shall come out.” The victim’s mother continued, “The matter is subjudiced and hence I am not speaking to anyone as the custody case is pending in the Highcourt and it’s my earnest request to all that please don’t make a mockery of the legal system as I have given my statement to the concern authorities.” She concluded her statement, saying, “Let the truth prevail."-

So far, Ekta Kapoor, Divya Khosla Kumar, Karishma Tanna and several other television actors have come out in Pearl V Puri’s support. Pearl was arrested on Friday night. He is sent to 14-days of judicial custody by Vasai court.
