The survivor in the sexual assault case against actor Vijay Babu took to instagram to express her disappointment over the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists' (AMMA's) failure in taking any action against the accused.
Apparently pained by AMMA's stand, the young actress shared a note: 'Just believe your own Amma not any other', clearly hinting that she felt betrayed.
She also praised actor Maala Parvathy who resigned from the Internal Complaints Committee (ICC), for taking a strong stand against AMMA's inaction. “Huge respect to this brilliant lady!! Hats off to you,” she wrote.
Actor Maala Parvathy was the first to step down in protest against the organisation's refusal to take action against the accused. Actor Shwetha Menon, who is also the AMMA vice-president, and actor Kukku Parameshwaran, also resigned from the committee in protest on Tuesday.
A rape case was filed against Vijay Babu following a complaint by the survivor last week. The police registered another case against the actor after he revealed the woman's identity in a Facebook live video.
Vijay Babu, who is in Dubai now, has been evading arrest ever since he was accused of rape. The Kerala police have contacted the Interpol and are taking steps to extradite the filmmaker from Dubai.
The Kerala High Court had also rejected the anticipatory bail plea filed by Vijay Babu in connection with the case.
