Kochi police initiate steps to issue Blue Corner notice against rape-accused Vijay Babu

The Kochi City police have initiated measures to issue a Blue Corner notice against the absconding Malayalam actor-producer Vijay Babu who is facing charges of raping an upcoming actor and then revealing her identity in a social media outburst.

Police chose to act after Babu failed to respond to the police communication turning down his request seeking time till May 19 to appear for interrogation and to share his present location. He is absconding since the registration of the case for rape by the Ernakulam South police and is suspected to have taken refuge in Dubai. He is yet to reveal his location but would only say that he is abroad for business purposes.

“We have set in motion the process of issuing the Blue Corner notice through Interpol,” said C.H. Nagaraju, District Police Chief (Kochi City).
