Over a couple of months after being accused of assaulting a female student, Democratic Youth Federation of India leader Jaison Joseph finally surrendered before the police here on Monday.
Officials said Mr. Joseph surrendered before the Dy.SP in Ranni in the morning and was later produced before a magistrate, and remanded to judicial custody.
The accused, previously a fourth-year student of the Mount Zion Law College in Kadammanitta, allegedly assaulted the woman student on December 21, causing an injury on her nose. Although the Aranmula police collected the victim’s statement and filed a case, they did not initiate the arrest of the accused.
