Kerala: The Kerala High Court on Wednesday (15th Jan) criticized well-known businessman Boby Chemmanur for refusing to leave jail even after being granted bail the previous day in a sexual harassment case filed by Malayalam actress Honey Rose.
The Kerala High Court ruled that Section 52A of the Waqf Act, effective from November 2013, does not apply retroactively. Justice P V Kunhikrishnan stated that prosecution requires evidence of unauthorized transfers, which the petitioners did not engage in. Consequently, the cases against them were quashed as the law cannot be applied retroactively.
