Malappuram:
Rajmohan Unnithan, member of the All-India Congress Committee (AICC) and former General Secretary of the Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC), was arrested on Monday at Manjeri town, for allegedly indulging in 'immoral' activities.
The Congress party suspended Unnithan soon after the incident.
Unnithan was taken into custody along with a woman and charged under the Immoral Tafficking (Prevention) Act. Both were produced before the First Class Judicial Magistrate Court and released them on bail.
Locals had informed the police about Unnithan's presence at the 'house'. Later, slogan shouting CPI-M and BJP workers demanded his arrest.
Reacting to the incident, KPCC President Ramesh Chennithala said the party would take "suitable action" after examining the issue in detail. Opposition leader Oommen Chandy said he would support any action initiated by party but he was not keen to air personal opinion on the issue.
Rajmohan Unnithan, a crowd puller with distinct and good oratory skills, was not available for comment.
