Kerala High Court Modifies Travel Condition On Bail For Rapper Vedan In Rape Case

The Kerala High Court modified the condition imposed on rapper Vedan while granting him anticipatory bail in a sexual assault case framed on a false promise to marry. While the applicant had been prevented from leaving India as a bail condition, the Court noted his profession involves foreign concerts and held that, since the investigation was complete and final report filed, the restraint on travel unduly hampered his vocation. The condition was relaxed permitting him to travel abroad for performances, balancing individual liberty and investigative integrity.
