According to the complaint lodged at Ramnagar Police Station in Gondia, the incident took place between the night of October 25, 2020, and the morning of October 29, 2020. Then the actor and the entire team were staying at a hotel in Balaghat, Madhya Pradesh.

After the complaint, Vijay Raj was arrested on 4 November 2020. However, later on the same day, the actor also got bail. At the same time, a crew member of ‘Sherni’ told one of the media houses what happened on the day of the incident. According to him, there were 30 people on the set, and the incident happened in front of everyone. The crew member had told that Vijay Raj had grabbed the woman’s arm and pulled her, due to which she got angry.

The crew member also said that Vijay Raj did not sexually harass or molest her. But, due to this, actor Vijay Raj not only lost many projects, but he also had to leave the shooting of ‘Sherni’ midway. But now Vijay Raj has been declared innocent by the court and has also been acquitted with honour. Now the court, while hearing the case, said, ‘The investigating officer did not investigate further. Therefore, the evidence presented by the prosecution appears weak and insufficient. Even the CCTV footage seized does not clearly show the alleged harassment by the accused.’
