Kochi, Nov 18 (IANS) A court in Kerala's Kochi has directed upcoming superstar actor Jayasurya and three others to appear before it on December 29 based on a probe conducted after an FIR was registered for encroaching on the backwater at Chilavanoor near here.

It was in 2016 that a local resident first raised a complaint in this regard and based on it, the Vigilance Department conducted a probe.
