The Kerala High Court has quashed the criminal proceedings against businessman Boby Chemmanur in a sexual harassment complaint registered by a female actor. Justice Jobin Sebastian, who was was apprised of the settlement that had been reached between the actor and Mr. Chemmanur, allowed Mr. Chemmanur’s plea to set aside the proceedings pending before the Additional District and Sessions Court, Ernakulam.
The woman actor had earlier informed the court that she was inclined to reach a settlement with Mr. Chemmanur after he made an apology through social
media. The crime was registered against Mr. Chemmanur in January 2025, after he had made sexually loaded remarks against the actor during an inaugural function. A
special investigation team then arrested Mr. Chemmannur on the charges of sexual harassment, making sexually coloured remarks, and publishing or transmitting obscene material in electronic form.
