KOCHI: The Kerala High Court Thursday granted bail for Prakash Babu, the NDA candidate of Kozhikode, in the case related to the attack on women during the agitation in Sabarimala. The court granted conditional bail to Prakash Babu, who has been remanded in the case.

He was given bail on a bond of Rs 2 lakh, asked to produce the passport and appear before the investigating official after polls. The court while considering his bail plea asked social activists not to engage in unconstitutional actions for political gains.

Prakash Babu was remanded for attacking a woman who came to offer prayers at the temple during the Chithira Atta vishesham festivities. As his bail plea was rejected earlier, he surrendered in the court on March 28. He was later remanded for 14 days.
