According to FIR report, the victim was approached by the Salman's manager while she was in London for work in August 2018. Afterward, she met Salman at a coffee shop in Oshiwara Andheri, where he offered her an opportunity to perform in Bollywood Park, Dubai with him. The victim claimed that Salman "touched her inappropriately" on the day she was offered the opportunity after he offered to drop her home. When she objected to Salman's behaviour, the dancer, she said, claimed that such things happened in Bollywood.
As soon as they reached the airport, Salman allegedly introduced her to his cousin brother, who, along with Salman, allegedly touched her inappropriately on their journey back to Dubai via car on November 3. The victim claimed that Salman and his team harassed her and her troupe for days after the incident, and even threatened her with dire consequences. He allegedly forcefully made them terminate their contracts and on November 10 sent her and her troupe flight tickets back to Mumbai when they refused to budge.
These incidents of harassment prompted the victim to file a case against the dancer and his brother. Salman Yusuff Khan is a popular face in the entertainment industry. He shot to fame after winning the first season of reality show Dance India Dance in 2009.
