Kochi: Kerala Police has issued a lookout notice against Malayalam actor-producer Vijay Babu after a case of sexual assault was registered against him based on the complaint of an actress.
Babu allegedly raped the complainant and disclosed the victim’s identity during a Facebook Live session, for which another case has been registered. He has been absconding.
“He behaved like my saviour for my personal and professional problems but under the guise sexually exploited me,” the actress alleged in a Facebook post.
The victim alleged that Babu trapped her in the role of a “saviour-cum-friend-cum-lover” and then intoxicated her before sexually abusing her several times in the last month and a half.
Babu revealed the victim’s identity on Facebook Live, claiming that it was he who was the ‘real victim’. He also said he’d file a defamation case against the actress and start a new Me Too, but has been absconding ever since.
