TRIGGER WARNING: The article contains references to rape and abuse. Reader discretion is advised.With just hours left for the crucial verdict in the Kerala actress assault case, new and significant details from the trial have surfaced. This includes a personal message sent by actor Dileep to Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan five days after the assault took place. The message, sent on February 22, 2017, reportedly expressed that the actor was under “extreme mental stress” despite maintaining his innocence. Dileep sent a personal message to CM Pinarayi VijayanAs reported by Asianet News, the message, sent on February 22, 2017 at 9:22 AM, expressed that he was under extreme mental stress “despite doing nothing wrong.” Reports state that Dileep had also contacted high-ranking police officers around the same period. According to the prosecution, these attempts were made fearing that the investigation might eventually reach him.

Prosecution claims fear of being exposed triggered the outreach

Reportedly, the prosecution presented the recovered message in court, arguing that the actor’s sudden communication with the CM and senior police officials was not a coincidence.According to the prosecution, the very first day of the investigation publicly identified Pulsar Suni as the prime accused and this development created immense pressure on Dileep. The prosecution maintains that the outreach and messages originated from panic rather than innocence. They also shared their long-standing claim that resentment over the assaulted actress revealing the relationship between Dileep and actress Kavya Madhavan to Manju Warrier, his wife at the time, was the alleged motive behind the crime.

Relationship angle highlighted; defense calls it a fabricated story

Reports say that in court, it was further revealed that Dileep had saved Kavya Madhavan’s mobile number under multiple names, including Raman, RUK Annen, Meen, Vyasan and others, to conceal the identity. The prosecution stated that Manju Warrier’s discovery of messages between Dileep and Kavya triggered a series of events that ultimately led to the conspiracy. However, Dileep’s side continues to strongly deny this narrative. The actor maintains that the allegation of orchestrating the attack or paying for it is a completely fabricated story created by the police. Of the ten accused in the case, actor Dileep is listed as the eighth accused.On the work front, Dileep is all set for his major comeback with ‘Bha.Bha. Ba’.Disclaimer: The information in this report is based on a legal hearing as reported by a third-party source.
