A Kerala court on Monday granted bail to right-wing commentator T G Mohandas, a day after his arrest for controversial remarks on a student protest in Delhi. The Thiruvananthapuram Additional Chief Judicial First Class Magistrate Court set conditions: Mohandas must cooperate with the investigation for three days, appear when summoned, and not make similar videos. The case stems from a YouTube video where he allegedly said the protest could lead to gang rape and that some girls enjoy rape. Police registered charges under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, IT Act, and Kerala Police Act, later adding charges for insulting a woman's modesty and criminal intimidation.
