Kerala activist Rehana Fathima to move Supreme Court after HC rejects anticipatory bail

Rehana Fathima was booked by Kerala Police after a video of her two children drawing on her half-naked body started circulating on social media

Kochi: Activist Rehana Fathima, who was booked for non-bailable offences under Juvenile Justice Act and IT Act, will move the Supreme Court after the Kerala high court rejected her anticipatory bail.
 
She was booked by Kerala Police after a video of her two children drawing on her half-naked body started circulating on social media.
 
The 34- year-old activist said that the video which is doing rounds on social media was made to highlight how women need to be open about sex and their bodies in a society where topics like sex and nudity are taboo. She added that these lessons should begin from one’s own home.
 
In the video, her son and daughter can be seen painting on her semi-naked body. The video was posted on social media on June 19. The video was captioned #BodyArtPolitics.
