A doctor of a government-run hospital in Greater Noida has been booked by the police for allegedly sexually harassing a 24-year-old woman lab technician, officials said on Monday. Noida Shocker: Government Hospital Doctor Booked for Allegedly Sexually Harassing Woman Technician.
The high court removed the 'sexually provocative dress' remark of the Kozhikode sessions court in the Civic Chandran sexual harassment case. However, it upheld the anticipatory bail granted to him.
The Kerala High Court made the observation while expunging the ‘sexually provocative dress” remarks from the order passed by a Kozhikode Session Judge while granting anticipatory bail in a sexual harassment case.
Hearing the state government's appeal challenging the lower court's bail order, the Kerala high court ruled that "irrelevant materials" were relied on to grant bail.
The order was pronounced by the same Kozhikode sessions court which granted the activist bail in another case saying the offence of sexual harassment offence is not applicable when the woman was wearing a "sexually provocative dress".
