Director had falsely claimed Bishop’s intervention for bail, Dileep tells HC
The Hindu
‘Revelations made when examination of investigating officer set to begin’
Terming false director Balachandrakumar’s allegation that a conspiracy was hatched by actor Dileep to harm the investigation officers in the actor sexual assault case, the actor told the Kerala High Court that the director had earlier falsely claimed that he got bail in the case due to his intervention through the Bishop of Neyyattinkara.
In a reply statement filed in their anticipatory bail case on Saturday, Dileep and four others said that “Mr. Balachandrakumar’s wife was a Latin Catholic Christian and he claimed that he had close relationship with the Bishop of Neyyattinkara who, he claimed, is close to various dignitaries like the Chief Minister, Ministers, senior police officers and so on. Mr. Balachandrakumar said that he would inform the Bishop of the entire details about the false implication of the 1st petitioner (Dileep) and the Bishop would inform the dignitaries the true facts and that would result in proper investigation.”
