Kerala High Court grants anticipatory bail to rapper Vedan in rape case

The Kerala High Court has granted anticipatory bail to Malayalam rapper Hiran Das Murali, also known as Vedan, in a rape case involving allegations of sexual exploitation under a false promise of marriage.

The Court had earlier reserved its order in the rapper's bail plea, which was moved after a FIR was lodged against him by a young doctor.

The court noted that other pending cases or complaints are not relevant to the current plea, which must be considered on its own merit.
