The judicial system continues to take serious action against those accused of misconduct, irrespective of their social or political standing. On April 15, 2022, Thiruvananthapuram’s Chief Judicial Magistrate’s court issued an arrest warrant against Rajya Sabha MP AA Rahim, who recently assumed office as a member of the Communist Party of India (Marxist). The allegations levelled against Rahim date back to 2017 when he reportedly harassed and confined a college professor, Dr Vijayalekshmi. This incident allegedly occurred in a dispute over fund allocation for a university festival. The court’s decision to issue an arrest warrant underscores its commitment to uphold justice and maintain public faith in the legal process. This case is a stark reminder that no one is above the law.
AA Rahim Accused of Harassing and Holding College Professor Hostage.
The allegations against Mr. Rahim are grave, involving the harassment and confinement of Dr. Vijayalekshmi, a respected college professor. The incident reportedly occurred in a discussion regarding allocating university festival funds, for which Dr. Vijayalekshmi had requested an account. Upon her request for a utilization certificate explaining the previous expenditure, Rahim and his accompanying students allegedly objected and held her hostage for several hours. This incident, dating back to 2017, has now resurfaced and stands to tarnish Rahim’s recent induction into the Rajya Sabha. It serves as a sobering reminder that positions of power should not be platforms for intimidation but rather seats of responsibility and accountability.

Rahim is not the sole individual implicated in this uncomfortable incident from 2017; in fact, he is among a group of 12 accused of intimidating and illegally restraining Dr. Vijayalekshmi.

The comprehensive list of the accused individuals has not been disclosed as yet.

As the case proceeds, it will undoubtedly be a critical test of the judicial system’s ability to uphold the principles of accountability and justice, irrespective of one’s political or social standing.
