Binoy Kodiyeri, son of Kerala CPM chief Kodiyeri Balakrishnan, skipped giving samples for his DNA test today. Binoy said that he couldn’t give his blood sample as he was sick.

Last Wednesday, Binoy got anticipatory bail from the Dindoshi sessions court. However, the court has ordered him to take a DNA test. The DNA test would be the first and final evidence which will decide the fate of the case.

As a condition for the bail, he was required to appear before the investigations officer of Oshiwara police station every Monday for one month. He would be required to stay at the station from 10 am to 1 pm.

Reportedly, Binoy had arrived at the Oshiwara station today and was questioned for 30 mins by the investigating officer in the case. He had told the officer that he was sick and wouldn’t able to provide the blood sample. He had even produced a medical certificate. He had also said that he was ready to cooperate with the investigations.

Binoy would now be required to provide his blood sample next Monday.

Binoy Kodiyeri was booked in a rape case over a complaint filed by a 33-year-old woman. Mumbai Police registered a case against Binoy after the woman alleged that he had raped her repeatedly over a decade under the pretext of marrying her. The woman had also alleged that she was kept in dark regarding Binoy’s marital status. The woman also has an eight-year-old son who she claims was fathered by Binoy.

After the complaints, Binoy had absconded from the Mumbai Police. The police had even issued a look-out notice for him.

Hearing about the trouble Binoy was going through, a journalist from Kerala O Abdulla had invited Binoy Kodiyeri, son of Kerala CPM chief Kodiyeri Balakrishnan, to join Islam as a solution to the current rape charges that he is facing reports News18.
