The Kerala High Court has stayed the transfer of Kozhikode Principal District and Sessions Judge S. Krishnakumar as presiding officer of the Kollam Labour Court.
He was transferred after his controversial observations about the dressing of the survivor in a sexual harassment case against writer Civic Chandran.
Mr. Krishnakumar had filed an appeal against an order of a Single Bench of the High Court that dismissed his petition challenging the transfer.
