Kochi: Bishop Franco Mulakkal, the accused in raping of a nun at a Kerala convent, will be facing trial at a Kerala court starting November 11.
The court has summoned Bishop Franco Mulakkal to take part in the trial procedure.
Meanwhile, the nun who accused Bishop Franco of rape has filed a complaint against him with the state women’s commission alleging that he and his team are using social media to defame her.
In the complaint, it has also been alleged that “in some videos on YouTube, the photographs of the victim is used, which will reveal the identity”.
“The videos are intended to disrespect, abuse, intimidate and influence the witness, victim and the investigation team. This is a violation of the bail conditions laid down by the Kerala HC,” said the complaint lodged by the nun.
