Malvika Subba on Sushmita Regmi’s Case

In response to the allegations, Subba has released her statement on social media acknowledging the issue and apologizing for not taking a stand for the victim. The backlash against Subba has been swift because of her social activism and the fact that she has been very outspoken against child abuse and sexual violence against women. Subba has also said that she is willing to withdraw from any feminism and sexual violence platforms if it helps the victim’s recovery from all the traumatic experiences she has had to endure.
