A bench warrant has been issued for Kishore Kumar, who is on trial for allegedly making false claims about a pornographic video against a female Government minister.

This was issued after he failed to appear in court for the continuation of his trial yesterday.

Kumar is charged with allegedly making false porn video claims on his Facebook page, Kishore Kumar Publications against Lenora Qereqeretabua in 2020.

Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) lawyer Moira Konrote told the court that Kumar had made a Facebook post in which he claimed to have reported a break-in at his home to the Valelevu Police Station.
