EX-KERALA
MINISTER BOOKED FOR
SEXUAL HARASSMENT
Former
LDF Minister Jose Thettayil was on Sunday,23rd June,2013, booked by
police in a sexual harassment case. The case was registered on the basis of a
complaint filed by a woman, who alleged that she had been sexually abused by
Thettayil and his son Adarsh at a flat in Aluva last year, police sources said.A
detailed inquiry is on, they said.
Thettayil, a JD(S)
leader and former transport minister, said he would face the case legally and
claimed that it was a 'political conspiracy' against him. The MLA from
Angamally said he knew the woman as she had approached him to get married to
her son.State Home Minister Thiruvanchoor Radhakrishan said Ernakulam Crime
Branch SP S Ajitha Begum Sultan will investigate the matter. The development
might come as a setback to the opposition CPI(M)-led Left Democratic Front
which is going hammer and tongs at the ruling Congress-led UDF over the solar
scam.LDF has been disrupting assembly sessions since the past week over the
issue.
