Kochi, May 21 (SocialNews.XYZ) Already out on bail for making a hate speech, former seven-time MLA and Kerala Janapaksham Chairman P.C. George, on Saturday suffered a jolt, when a lower court here dismissed his anticipatory bail plea in another similar case.
Earlier this month, on May 1 after he was arrested, he was granted conditional bail by a local court in the state capital city for a similar offence.
And out on bail, a few days later George known for his provocative speeches, especially when it comes to attacking his adversaries, landed in trouble when he made a similar hate speech at Kochi.
When Kochi City Police Commissioner C.H. Nagaraju said that George will be arrested as he has committed the same crime again, which is a violation of the bail conditions, George approached the Ernakulam District and Sessions Court seeking anticipatory bail, which was dismissed on Saturday.
Reacting to it, his son Shaun George said this is a vindictive approach of the Kerala government and now that the local court has denied bail, we are moving the High Court with an anticipatory bail application.
Of late, in his political speeches, George has been going hammer and tongs against the Muslim community which has landed him in trouble yet again.
On May 1, George was arrested over hate speech charges from his house and granted conditional bail later by Thiruvananthapuram Judicial first class magistrate court (II), Justice Asha Koshy.
He was then charged under IPC Sections 153A and 295A.
On May 1, after securing bail, George told media persons: "The Judiciary in India is for justice and the Honourable Chief Minister of Kerala, Pinarayi Vijayan, and his police had arrested me as a Ramzan gift to Islamic terror groups."
George, who has been a legislator for seven terms, had lost the 2021 Assembly elections from his home constituency Poonjar and the one major reason why he lost is he antagonised the Muslim community in his constituency, who for long has been his mainstay.
