Ernakulam: As the complaint of a woman over alleged physical attack initiated a police probe with non-bailable offences slapped on him, Perumbavoor MLA Eldhose Kunnapilllil has gone incommunicado.
A possibility of more grave charges such as sexual harassment is staring at him as the complainant has levelled such allegation in her statement before the magistrate.
The MLA is reportedly not seen at his office or house. On Tuesday evening, he approached the sessions court in Thiruvananthapuram for anticipatory bail. He may be hiding till the court takes a decision on the matter, to avoid arrest.
