Expelled MLA votes amid sexual assault cases

Expelled MLA votes amid sexual assault cases

A man named Rahul Mamkootathil, who used to be a leader in the Congress party, went to vote in an election in Palakkad.

He had been hiding for over two weeks because there are serious allegations against him, including sexual assault and forcing someone to have an abortion.

The court has given him some protection from being arrested, so he was able to vote.

When he left the voting place, some people protested against him by showing pictures of cradles and roosters.

He said he would only talk about the allegations in court.
