Malappuram: Police have arrested a woman from Tirur for sexually assaulting and blackmailing a 15-year-old boy.
The accused, Satyabhama (30), allegedly sexually assaulted the minor, recorded the incident on video, and threatened him using the footage. It is reported that the abuse was committed with the knowledge and involvement of her husband, Sabeek, who reportedly filmed the act. He is currently at large.

It is also alleged that the couple, who are addicted to narcotic substances, attempted to give drugs to the boy. The police said the duo had coerced the minor into recording nude videos of other women.

The incident reportedly took place in 2021, when the survivor was a school student. The case surfaced only recently after his family lodged a complaint, following which the police arrested Satyabhama. Efforts are underway to trace Sabeek’s whereabouts. A Tirur court has remanded Satyabhama in judicial custody.
