Former judge quizzed in Kerala sex scandal case

Kochi, May 8 (IANS) Retired Kerala High Court judge K. Narayana Kurup was questioned by the police Saturday in a two-decade-old sex scandal case.

 
 Kurup was questioned a day after another former judge K. Thankappan was quizzed after allegations that the two made the case favourable for a former minister.
 
 The scandal broke out in the 1990s when Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) leader and former state minister P.K. Kunhalikutty was named in a sex racket being run under the garb of an ice cream shop.
 
 The media coined the term "ice cream parlour sex case".
 
 K.A. Rauf, close relative of Kunhalikutty, in February said the two judges were instrumental in making the case favourable for the former minister. 
 
 Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan ordered a re-investigation and appointed a team to be led by Additional Director General of Police Vinson M. Paul.
 
 The case of sexual abuse of a minor girl was closed by the courts in 2006.
