A Kerala court on Wednesday granted anticipatory bail to expelled Congress MLA Rahul Mamkootathil in the second sexual harassment case registered against him, subject to multiple conditions. More details on the conditions of the bail are awaited.
The case pertains to a complaint filed by a 23-year-old woman from Bengaluru, who alleged that she was assaulted in 2023 on the promise of marriage. The police had submitted the woman’s statement before the court as part of the proceedings.
The The Thiruvananthapuram Principal Sessions Court’s order comes as a major relief to the legislator, who had been absconding for the last 13 days in connection with the case.
