Kochi | A rape case has been lodged against well-known Malayalam rapper Vedan, also known as Hirandas Murali, on a complaint by a lady doctor alleging that he sexually assaulted her on several occasions between 2021-2023 at various places in the state, police said on Thursday.
An FIR under section 376 IPC was lodged against the rapper at Thrikkakara police station late Wednesday, a senior police officer said.
Vedan had faced allegations of wrongdoing in the past as well.
He was arrested and then released on bail in April this year in a drug case.
Shortly thereafter, he was arrested and then released on bail by the Forest Department in connection with a leopard tooth found in his possession.
Besides these, a complaint was lodged against him in May this year by a BJP leader accusing him of defaming Prime Minister Narendra Modi and promoting caste-based division through his music.
