A member of the inquiry committee confirmed to TNM that Hari Padman, the main accused, has been found guilty of suspicious misconduct.
The Tamil Nadu State Women’s Commission had opposed the bail on the grounds that it had received statements regarding sexual harassment at Kalakshetra from over 100 students.
Of the two teachers accused, PT Narendran, who is also a governing board member, told TNM that he is unaware of such a complaint, while Mohanan said that the allegation against him is false.
Justice M Dhandapani, while admitting a writ petition filed by seven Kalakshetra students, said that their identities must be protected and that the alleged perpetrators must not contact the students or enter the campus.
A writ of Mandamus dated April 11 was filed by the students, who requested to remain anonymous throughout the proceeding to avoid discriminatory treatment from the college.
