It is also reported that proceedings of this case were conducted in private and the anticipatory bail was granted by a bench headed by Justice Bechu Kurian Thomas. It all started when the actress filed a complaint against Vijay Babu by stating that he intoxicated her and took advantage of her when she was not in the state of mind to give her consent. She has also spoken about why she did not come forward before because she was scared of the power Vijay Babu has.

Shockingly, after the complaint was filed, Vijay Babu went ahead to reveal the name of the actress in a Facebook Live session. This move looks like he was trying to intimidate her by revealing her name.
