‘Shut up otherwise no one will marry you’ Servant sexually harassed her at the age of 5, actress felt pain after hearing her mother’s reply
New Delhi: Salman Khan’s ex-girlfriend Somi Ali is living a peaceful life abroad today, but the incidents of sexual harassment in her childhood still leave deep wounds on her mind. Recently he has shared these painful memories.
Servant exploitation at the age of 5
Somi told that at the age of just 4, she had to face sexual abuse for the first time. After this, when she was 5 years old, the cook of her house, Abdul, misbehaved with her. Somi says, "He used to take me to his room on the pretext of showing me the chickens and did this two-three times."
He told all this to his mother. The mother informed the father over the intercom, who at that time worked as a film producer, director and distributor. The father called Abdul and got him beaten badly by other servants. The cook bled to death and was thrown out of the house.
Exploited again after 9 years
A small girl, Somi, herself became a victim of trauma after seeing this violence. Seeing violence followed by physical abuse at the age of just 5 took a heavy toll on his fragile mind. At the age of 9, the guards of the house took her to the servant quarter and sexually abused her again. This time mother’s reaction was different. Somi told, "Mom said don’t tell anyone, otherwise no one will marry you."
It is wrong to ask the victim to remain silent.
Somi says that her father punished the culprit, but her mother’s attitude made her more sad. He said that only the child who has not committed any mistake is advised to remain silent and not be afraid. This thinking of society is very wrong.
need for change
Somi Ali believes that victims should not be stopped from raising their voice. Family and society should support the victim and not try to suppress them. Her revelation brings to the fore the pain of many women, where childhood traumas stay with them throughout their lives.
