KOCHI: Though two months have passed since the Kerala High Court directed the state police to file a report on the status of investigation regarding the alleged rape of a 32-year-old woman at Muringoor by a former priest of Emperor Emmanuel Church, Thrissur, the police are yet to file a report.
The victim filed the petition seeking a directive to constitute a Special Investigation Team for effective probe on May 3 and it came up for hearing on May 4 before the High Court. Justice P Gopinath had sought the view of the state government and directed the District Police Chief, Thrissur, to file a report regarding the status of the probe into the complaint filed by the victim within two weeks. The court had also directed to post the case after receiving the report. But the police have not filed the report till date.
