YouTuber Arrested For Derogatory Remarks Against Actor Mohanlal
Pathanamthitta, Kerala: 

The Kerala police on Friday arrested a YouTuber for allegedly making derogatory remarks against actor Mohanlal over his visit to the disaster-hit regions in Wayanad district donning army fatigues.

Thiruvalla Police on Friday morning arrested Aju Alex, who is known for his 'Chekuthan' YouTube channel.

The arrest was based on a complaint filed by General Secretary of the Association of Malayalam Movie Artistes (AMMA) and actor Siddique, the police said.

According to the complaint, the YouTuber has reportedly used derogatory remarks against Mohanlal, who reached Wayanad in his capacity as an honorary lieutenant colonel of the Territorial Army.

Siddique said the YouTuber has been regularly abusing actors in the Malayalam media industry.

"We have a law in this country. We cannot simply sit idle and watch when our members are being abused regularly," Siddique said.

It will also highlight various interventions and solutions that help to make women safe and put the spotlight on what more can be done.

The campaign will accentuate the need for Safety to be a shared responsibility

The need for gender sensitization and how law enforcement and civil society through checks and education can try and make women safer

We hope you will join us and help make New Delhi a safer city for women.
