Shwetha Menon Obscene Films Case: Kerala High Court Orders Interim Stay On Proceedings In FIR Against The Actor
Kochi: Kerala High Court on Thursday stayed the proceedings in connection with the FIR lodged against Malayalam film actor Shwetha Menon for allegedly publishing or transmitting obscene scenes of some of her past movies and advertisements. The interim order was passed by Justice V G Arun on a plea made by the actor to quash the FIR against her. The High Court said there was prima facie substance in the contention of the actor's counsel. Before referring the complaint for investigation, the requirements of calling for a report from the police and of making an enquiry ought to have been complied. "Considering the short duration within which the complaint was filed and forwarded to the police, it appears that no such procedure was followed. Registry shall call for a report from the court of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Ernakulam regarding the procedure followed before forwarding the complaint to the police for investigation". "There shall be an interim stay on further proceedings in crime number 1075/2025 (the FIR) of Ernakulam central police station," the High Court said. It also issued notice to the state and the complainant on whose complaint the magisterial court had ordered after the FIR was lodged. An FIR, under the section 67 (publishing or transmitting obscene material in electronic form) of the Information Technology (IT) Act and provisions of the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act was lodged against the actor. Menon, known for films like Salt N Pepper, Rathinirvedam and Kalimannu, is in the fray for the president's post in the Association of Malayalam Movie Artistes (AMMA). The election to the executive committee is scheduled for August 15. In her plea, seeking quashing of the FIR, the actor has claimed that the allegations are "mala fide" in nature and the offences she has been booked for are not made out. The complainant -- Martin Menachery -- has alleged that Menon appeared in several films -- Paleri Manikkyam, Rathinirvedham, Kalimann and a condom advertisement containing her obscene visuals with the intention of securing monetary gain. Rejecting the allegations, the actor has contended that the films referred to in the complaint were duly censored and certified and have been available in the public domain for several years now. She also said that the character portrayed by her in the movie Paleri Manikyam, bagged her a Kerala State Award for best actress. Even the advertisement, in which she appeared years ago, was duly censored and certified, the plea said. "The allegation of the petitioner (Menon) being privy to running porn sites is absurd and per se defamatory. It is submitted that such allegations are raised in a callous and irresponsible manner without any supporting material," it contended. The actor also said that the complaint was filed in the wake of her filing nomination for the post of AMMA president.

Kerala High Court on Thursday stayed the proceedings in connection with the FIR lodged against Malayalam film actor Shwetha Menon for allegedly publishing or transmitting obscene scenes of some of her past movies and advertisements. (Also read: Maala Parvathi calls FIR on Shwetha Menon over obscene content 'tug for power' during AMMA elections) The interim order in connection with actor Shwetha Menon was passed by Justice V G Arun.(Instagram/@shwetha_menon) Update on Shwetha Menon case The interim order was passed by Justice V G Arun on a plea moved by the actor to quash the FIR against her. The court also issued notice to the state and the complainant on whose complaint a magisterial court had ordered lodging of the FIR. An FIR under section 67 (publishing or transmitting obscene material in electronic form) of the Information Technology (IT) Act and provisions of the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act was lodged against the actor. An officer of Ernakulam Central police station told PTI that no case was initially registered based on the complaint, but the activist went to court to seek registration of an FIR. About the complaint Social activist Martin Menachery filed a complaint against Shwetha. The complaint alleges that Shwetha had shot some obscene scenes in her past movies and that these were being circulated online on social media and various sites. The complaint specifically cited the actor's roles in films like Rathinirvedam, Paleri Manikyam: Oru Pathirakolapathakathinte Katha, and Kalimannu, in addition to her appearance in a condom commercial. Shwetha is currently contesting for the post of president of the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA). Malayalam superstar Mohanlal had stepped down from the same post last year in the wake of the Justice Hema Committee Report. The election to the executive committee is scheduled for August 15. Meanwhile, speaking to the press, Martin has said that his complaint has nothing to do with AMMA elections.
