Earlier, the Greater Chennai Police sent a team to Telangana and Andhra Pradesh to find Kasthuri who was absconding.

On November 14, the Madras High Court denied her anticipatory bail. Justice Anand Venkatesh dismissed her plea. He called her comments "unwarranted" and said her apology was not enough.
