Actor Joy Mathew has been charged with a case for taking part in a protest showing solidarity with the nun, who has been at the receiving end of some abusive behaviour from Bishop Franco Mulakkal. Police had already warned not to conduct protests in Mittayitheruvu, a popular place in Kozhikode district. But Joy Mathew, along with a few other public figures held the protest.
