KOTTAYAM: The trial court issued arrest warrant against the accused convicted in the Suryanelli case. The warrant was issued after the accused failed to surrender even after the Kerala High Court passed the verdict a month before.
The Kerala High Court had upheld the life sentence awarded to Dharmarajan, the main accused, by a lower court. The high court had in April relaxed the sentence of the other 23 accused from seven to 10 years.
The case is that the victim was sexually harassed by nearly 40 persons from January 16 to February 26, 1996 in Kerala and Tamil Nadu.
