Mumbai, June 26: The Mumbai Police on Wednesday issued a lookout notice against Binoy Kodiyeri, son of Kerala CPI(M) chief Kodiyeri Balakrishnan, who is accused of raping a woman.

Mumbai DCP Manjunath Shinde has confirmed the issuance of lookout notice, adding that the airport authorities have been asked to remain alert. A possibility exists that Binoy may attempt to sneak out of the nation, the senior police official told reporters. Rape & Cheating Case Filed Against Kerala CPM State Secretary's Son.
The case against Binoy has been registered at Mumbai's Oshiwara police station, based on the complaint of a former employee of a dance bar. The accused has been booked for rape and breach of trust. He is missing for the last 10 days.
Facing heat over the rape allegations against his elder son, Kodiyeri Balakrishnan on Saturday sought to distance the party and himself from the case.
Looking visibly uncomfortable as he faced a barrage of questions from the media personnel, Balakrishnan said his son Binoy was an adult and responsible for his actions, adding that he need not expect any protection from him or from the party.
This is the first time Kodiyeri was reacting on the charges of rape and cheating against his son, raised by a former bar dancer of Mumbai.
"Neither my party CPI(M) nor I will protect Binoy. He is an adult. He stays as a separate family and is responsible for his actions," Kodiyeri said.
The complainant, a 33-year-old woman from Mumbai, had alleged that Binoy had raped her promising marriage and she had an eight-year-old son from the relationship.
