Padmarajan, the accused in the Palathayi child sexual abuse case, has moved the Kerala High Court seeking a CBI probe into incidents. The petitioner, a teacher, said the Crime Branch, which investigated the case, was making efforts to submit a final report without conducting a proper, fair and impartial inquiry. Though he had filed a representation to the government in 2020 through his wife for an independent inquiry, no action was taken, he submitted.With the Prajwal Revanna sexual abuse case taking new twists every day, JD(S) State president and former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy on Monday appealed to the Hassan MP, who is his nephew, to return and subject himself to the legal process. This is the first time that such an appeal has been made by the family.
Amidst continuing protest over the murder of Anjali Ambiger in Hubballi, Home Minister G. Parameshwara, who visited the victim’s family on Monday, announced in a press conference that like the Neha Hiremath case, this too would be handed over to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) for inquiry.
