A Dhaka court on Sunday fixed November 30 for the cross-examination of actress Pori Moni in a case filed in connection with an attempted rape and murder charge.

Judge of Women and Children Repression Prevention Tribunal-9 Court, Shahadat Hossain fixed the new date as Pori Moni could not reach the court on time for her cross-examination.

The accused in the case are Nasir Uddin, Tuhin Siddique Omi and Shahidul Alam. All of them are currently on bail.

According to the case statement, Pori Moni was harassed at the Boat Club on the Turag River in Birulia, adjacent to Dhaka, on June 8, 2021.

On the night of June 13, she wrote in a Facebook post that she had been physically assaulted and that an attempt had been made to rape and kill her.

The post, in which she appealed to the then prime minister for justice, quickly spread on social media.

About an hour after making the post, she held a press conference at her Gulshan residence and made the allegations.

Later, Pori Moni filed the case with Savar Model Police Station accusing the defendants of attempting to rape and murder her and assaulting her, on the following day.

On September 6, 2021, investigation officer Inspector Kamal Hossain of Savar Police Station submitted a charge sheet against Nasir and two others.

The court framed charges against the accused on May 18, 2022 and began the trial.

Pori Moni started giving her deposition on November 29, 2022, but it has not yet been completed.
