Now, Julie has issued a clarification in a video on her Twitter page stating, “I’m posting this video to clarify certain reports that are being spread in the media. I would like to state that the news is completely false as I was not at all present at the spot at the time of the incident and I have spoken to the people who published the news and they have since then removed it.”

She further stated, “In addition, there are a few others who are publishing the news without any proof from another batch of people who are giving it their own spin. This kind of action has given me a lot of pain I just don’t understand. How can you speak about something without any proof? Do you realize how much pain we go through when a news without any proof is published?” Check out her full statement in a video in her tweet below:
