Chennai: The Crime Branch wing of Kerala police booked cases against two doctors of Kalamassery Medical College in Ernakulam district for allegedly threatening a minor sexual abuse survivor. The doctors examined the survivor after police registered a case on October 19 based on the complaint of the minor girl against Monson Mavunkal. The minor survivor was the daughter of an employee in Monson's cosmetic center.
According to a report on PTI, the police registered the case under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and have handed over the investigation to the crime branch that is handling the allegations.
A senior crime branch official reportedly told PTI that the girl in her complaint said that doctors locked her in a room and threatened her. She also alleged that the doctors reportedly asked inappropriate questions during a medical examination.

However, the doctors said that they just examined the rape survivor as per the protocol and closing the door was part of the procedure.
In September 2020, a self-styled antique dealer Monson from Cherthala in Alappuzha district was arrested by the Crime Branch wing for swindling Rs 10 crore from various people by making them believe with the help of high profile contacts including politicians, celebrities and bureaucrats.
Some of the contacts of Monson were ADGP Manoj Abraham, Actor Mohanlal, Congress president K Sudhakaran, Ministers Roshi Augustine and Ahammed Devarkovil. He also ran a website where Monson described himself as a philanthropist, educationist, peace promoter and motivational speaker.
