The Kerala High Court on Wednesday granted transit anticipatory bail to Mohammed Farmaan Khan, husband of Kumbh Mela viral girl Monalisa Bhosle, for a month in a case registered in Madhya Pradesh.
The marriage of Monalisa Bhosle, known as the “Kumbh Mela girl,” to Farman Khan in Kerala has sparked a major controversy after the National Commission for Scheduled Tribes (NCST) found that the girl was a minor at the time of the wedding.
VHP Kerala State General Secretary Anil Vilayil submitted the complaint to the Kerala Police Director General of Police (DGP) and the Poovar SHO, requesting an investigation under the Prohibition of Child Marriage Act and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2012.
