Actor-producer Vijay Babu anticipatory bail plea is going to be heard in the Kerala High Court on Monday.
He is on the run after being accused of rape, said Kochi City Police Commissioner CH Nagaraju.
On Saturday, it was confirmed that Babu has flown to Georgia.
When Babu anticipated that the Kerala Police was getting ready to issue a Red Corner Notice, he decided to move to a country which does not have an extradition treaty with India. So, he chose Georgia.
“Even without an extradition treaty, we can bring him back through the Indian embassy. He cannot avoid the law,” said Nagaraju, adding that Babu’s passport has been impounded.
Babu, according to police, is on the run after an actress from Kozhikode filed a complaint in Ernakulam on April 22 that she was raped and beaten up by him several times in a flat in Kochi.
Soon after the news surfaced, Babu appeared live on his social media handle claiming that he was the “real victim” in this case, adding that he would take appropriate legal steps against the complainant whom he also named.
The police, apart from the initial complaint, have registered a second case against the actor for disclosing the name of the complainant.
She has also accused the actor of giving her intoxicants before sexually abusing her.
