An Indian TV presenter, actress and model,
Gauahar Khan, (pictured clasping hand to
cheek) was left distressed after a member of
the audience at a singing TV competition she
was presenting on Sunday November 30th got
up and slapped her for wearing a revealing
dress.
Her assaulter, 24 year old Akil Malik, took
offence at Khan’s backless outfit as she
presented the grand finale of singing
competition, Raw Star at Film City in Goregaon,
Mumbai. He first started by arguing with the
model and as security made to escort him off
the venue, he managed to go up on stage and
slapped the woman in front of live audience.

According to Indian police, Malik said that as a
Muslim woman, Gauahar should not have
dressed the way she did. “Being a Muslim
woman, she should not have worn such a dress,”
he is quoted to have said.
Malik was arrested for molestation and will
appear in court today. Khan was taken off the
set after the embarrassing assault to cool off
but returned to the stage an hour later to
continue her show.
