The court granted anticipatory bail to Eldhose Kunnappilly on Friday. Further, he appeared before the investigation team for interrogation on Saturday.
Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president K Sudhakaran has suspended rape accused Perumbavoor MLA Eldhose Kunnappilly from KPCC and DCC membership for six months.
“The KPCC leadership has assessed the explanation given by the MLA was not satisfactory.
Considering the concessions given by the court in its verdict allowing anticipatory bail and the need to perform his duties as a legislative member in his constituency, KPCC has suspended him from KPCC’s and DCC’s day-to-day affairs for a period of six months.
Party will observe him in this period and further action will be decided accordingly,” the suspension order cited.
