NDTV
Balachandra Kumar had on November 25 filed a complaint with the Chief Minister's Office in Kerala, making scathing allegations against actor Dileep.
Women in Cinema Collective, an organisation working for women in the Malayalam cinema industry, has sought action from the law enforcement agencies in Kerala on the recent statements made by director Balachandra Kumar against accused actor Dileep in the 2017 case of a Kerala actor's kidnapping and sexual assault case, which is currently under trial.
Balachandra Kumar had on November 25 filed a complaint with the Chief Minister's Office in Kerala, making scathing allegations against Dileep, stating that he was an eye witness to key accused Pulsar Sunni being seen at accused Actor Dileep's house. The complainant also alleges that Dileep had seen a video recording of the sexual assault of the kidnapped actress along with a group of others and has also provided excerpts of recorded audio conversations at Dileep's house, including alleged attempts to influence key witnesses.
The prosecution on Wednesday moved the court seeking further probe into the case based on the scathing allegations and revelations by Balachandra Kumar.
Mr Kumar has also alleged that he was asked repeatedly not to mention seeing Pulsar Sunni with Dileep. In the complaint to the Chief Minister's office, the complainant has sought police protection for his life's safety and that of his family. A month since the complaint to Chief Minister's office, Balachandra Kumar took to speaking to the media.
