Controversies
editHe was arrested in 2016 for public indecency, where he flashed 14 schoolgirls in Palakkad, though he was released on bail.[12] He was again arrested in July 2022 for flashing naked in front of two minors.[13] He was denied bail and was remanded for seven days.[14] The court, considering that he was undergoing treatment for a behavioural disorder for the past six years, was granted bail on condition that the bail would get cancelled if he was found guilty of similar offenses again.[15]
