They were then produced before the residential court of the Khurda District and Sessions Judge. Later they were sent to the Jharpada Special Jail here. The two were granted conditional bail August 10, 2016 by the Orissa High Court. Since then the hearing had been going on.

It should be stated here that the alleged victim had lodged an FIR against the actor June 25, 2016. She had accused the actor of making sexual advances towards her on the pretext of providing her a break in the Odia film industry.

Meanwhile Papu informed that once he gets the judgement order, he may file cases against the girl and ‘the one who had filed an FIR to defame me’.
