Actress and former TMC MP Mimi Chakraborty has lodged a police complaint alleging harassment during a live stage performance in West Bengal's North 24 Parganas district, a senior police officer said Monday. The incident reportedly took place on Sunday at a cultural programme held in the Nayagram area of Bongaon town. Mimi also shared details of the incident on social media, drawing widespread attention to the issue. Mimi Chakraborty was neither insulted nor harassed, and the allegations made by her are completely baseless", Shastri said, alleging her "bouncers instead misbehaved with him". But had we continued the soiree beyond 12 midnight, the police would have forcibly stopped the function and prosecuted us," Shastri said.
