After prosecutor quits, court adjourns trial actor assault case

Anilkumar resigns alleging uncongenial atmosphere in court

V.N. Anilkumar, the Special Public Prosecutor (SPP) in the case relating to the sexual assault on woman actor, has submitted his resignation letter to the State government and Director General of Prosecution T.A. Shaji.

Mr. Anilkumar, who had earlier served as CBI prosecutor, is the second prosecutor to resign from the post within a year.

Earlier, A. Sureshan had resigned from the post following the High Court’s dismissal of a plea by the survivor for changing Additional Special Sessions Judge Honey M. Verghese.
