New Delhi: Actress Rhea Chakraborty on Thursday shared a screenshot of a message she received on Instagram where a user threatened to get her raped and murdered. She was also told to "commit suicide" or else she would be "killed". Along with sharing the troll's message to her, Rhea revealed she has been called a "gold-digger, a murderer" earlier and has also been "slut-shamed".
Urging Mumbai Police Cyber Crime to take immediate action, Rhea said, "I was called a gold digger ..I kept quiet. I was called a murderer ....I kept quiet. I was slut-shamed ....I kept quiet. But how does my silence give you the right to tell me that you will get me RAPED and MURDERED if I don’t commit suicide? Do you realize the seriousness of what you have said? These are crimes, and by law no one, I repeat NO ONE should be subjected to this kind of toxicity and harassment. I request @cyber_crime_helpline @cybercrimeindia to please take necessary action."
