Reports have it that fellow contestant Jeffery Iqbal stepped in and took it upon himself to avenge the insult and ended up physically abusing Gauhar’s offender.
The police have since gotten involved and detained 24 year old Akil Malik for the misconduct. Malik, on his part, continues to insist that Gauhar’s choice of clothing is disrespectful for the entire Muslim community of India.
“Being a Muslim woman, she should not have worn such a short dress,” the Mumbai police quoted Malik as saying by way of explanation.
Malik was arrested and charged with molestation under Section 354 of the Indian Penal Code.
