Umar Khalid: The order passed by Pradeep Sharma stating that I should not be let out is unlawful.

Judge: We will ask the Superintendent to be present tomorrow. Jail Superintendent to be present for tomorrow

Lawyer for Khalid: Please see that he does not bears the brunt for complaining before the judge

Assault against YouTuber: Kerala High Court is hearing the anticipatory bail applications preferred by Malayalam Film Industry dubbing artist Bhagyalakshmi and two others, Diya Sana and Sreelakshmi Arackal in a case registered for assaulting YouTuber Vijay P Nair.

The YouTuber had made sexist and offensive remarks against the women. The women rushed to Nair’s office and poured black oil on his face for his vulgar remarks against one of the women and against ‘feminists’ generally. The assault was streamed live on Facebook.

Before leaving, they took his laptop and left.
Their earlier bail plea before a Thiruvanathapuram Sessions Court was rejected by a Court which stated that no one could take the law into their own hands.

Gold Smuggling Case: : Kerala High Court extends interim protection against arrest to suspended Kerala CMO Bureaucrat M. Sivasankar, reserves orders in the case.
Sivasankar approached the Court apprehending arrest in the investigations launched against him by the Customs and ed

Appearing for Sivasankar, Senior Vijayabhanu submitted that the allegations as were made out were vague and were based on likelihoods.

The Customs and ED on the other hand stated that he was not made an accused yet, and granting him anticipatory bail at this stage would hamper the investigations, considering his influence and status.
