Satheesan also recalled the efforts of the late PT Thomas, who was the Congress MLA from Thrikkakkara, in the case in which an actress was allegedly abducted and molested inside her car by a group of men who had forced their way into the vehicle on the night of February 17, 2017.
"It is not only the simple thing of conviction that matters, the cleaning up of Malalayam cinema industry area has happened due to this case and the trial was a great challenge," said the retired IPS official on the case that shook the conscience of cinema-loving Kerala.
