I want justice. I’ve asked for help from so many people. However, they just heard what I said and commented that they'll 'look into it' while the fact is that no one has helped me yet," Pori Moni stated in her post.  She has mentioned that she tried to contact the local police station and even IGP Benazir Ahmed, but she was yet to receive any formal help regarding her complaint.   "I haven't found justice in the last three or four days. Where can I find justice? I’m a woman and an actress, but first of all I’m a human being. I can’t remain silent over what happened to me today," she added.   In her post, Pori Moni then addressed Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina as her "mother", writing: "I was about 2 and a half years’ old when my mother died. Today, I need a mother more than ever. I’ve never seen you, accepting any injustice quietly. I need you; I need your help to stay alive. Please save me, mother."   Also read: Pori Moni files sexual assault complaint against Uttara Club’s ex-president Nasiruddin, 5 others Pori Moni’s press conference   Pori Moni revealed the name and details of her assaulters through a press conference at her Gulshan residence in the capital on Sunday night.
