Thiruvananthapuram: A popular Kochi-based tattoo artist was arrested by the Kerala Police on Sunday over allegations of rape, sexual assault, and molestation made by at least 6 women – all his former clients. He has been sent to judicial custody for 14 days.
The complaints were filed after the social media post of an 18-year-old woman went viral, recounting her horrendous experience at the Sujeesh PS’s tattoo studio – Inkfected Tattoo Studio.
The woman alleged she was raped while the artist continued tattooing her with a needle on her spine. The woman, according to the police, has not filed a complaint.
However, after the viral post, several other women, took to social media to recount their sexual abuse experiences by the same tattoo artist in the last few years.
