Bishop Franco Mulakkalwho has been named in a sexual abuse case by a nun, on Tuesday moved the Kerala High Court seeking an anticipatory bail.
The bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese in Jalandhar would be appearing before the police probe team on Wednesday.
The bail plea would be heard by Justice V Raja Vijayaraghavan, later on Tuesday.
Franco has asked the court to see that he is not arrested until the anticipatory bail plea is finally disposed.
Meanwhile, no activity was witnessed at the Bishop House. Also, no visitors, no official vehicles were parked parked and no private security, which is usually in large number in the house.
Everyone, including the Bishop and other Fathers, have reportedly left for Kerala in the last two days but via separate means.
When contacted, PRO Father Peter said that they were on their way, and refused to answer any other question.
