Thiruvananthapuram, October 2024 — A Kerala court will hear the anticipatory bail plea filed by PP Divya on October 24 in connection with a suicide abetment case. The case pertains to allegations that Divya, a prominent local politician, played a role in driving an individual to suicide.
The incident, which has garnered significant attention in Kerala, has led to an FIR being registered against Divya under Section 306 of the Indian Penal Code (abetment of suicide). The police are currently investigating the claims, while Divya maintains her innocence, stating that the allegations are politically motivated.
Divya’s legal team filed the anticipatory bail plea in anticipation of potential arrest as the investigation continues. They argue that there is no substantial evidence linking her to the incident and that the accusations are part of a smear campaign to tarnish her public image.
The court’s decision on October 24 will determine whether Divya can avoid arrest while the case is still under investigation. The outcome could have significant political implications, as Divya is a key figure in the region, and the case has already sparked widespread public interest.
Meanwhile, the family of the deceased has urged the authorities to conduct a fair and thorough investigation into the matter. The case is being closely watched for its potential to impact the political landscape in Kerala.
