IN AN embarrassment to the ruling CPI(M) in Kerala, the Mumbai police has registered a case of rape and cheating against the son of the party’s State Secretary, Kodiyeri Balakrishnan.
The case was filed on the basis of a complaint from a 33-year-old woman from Bihar who has alleged that Binoy Vinodini Balakrishnan sexually assaulted her and that she has an eight-year-old son from him. Admitting that he knew the woman, Binoy, however, said the allegation was ‘baseless’.
