💨 Abstract

The Kerala High Court has ruled that a comment on a woman's body structure can constitute a sexually coloured remark, which could be considered a penal offence of sexual harassment. This decision was made while dismissing a former KSEB employee's plea to quash a sexual harassment case against him. The woman staffer had accused him of using vulgar language, sending objectionable messages, and voice calls from 2013 onwards.
