Acquitted Malayalam Star Dileep Claims Police-Media Conspiracy

Malayalam actor Dileep was acquitted in a 2017 sexual assault case and accused police and media of a conspiracy to ruin his career. Despite the acquittal, police implicated six others, including the prime accused. Dileep thanked his supporters for standing by him during the legal ordeal.

Malayalam actor Dileep emerged victorious on Monday after a local court acquitted him in a high-profile sexual assault case dating back to 2017. The actor accused certain police officials and media figures of orchestrating a conspiracy to implicate him and damage his career and social standing.

Following the acquittal, Dileep pointed fingers at his ex-wife, Manju Warrier, alleging her statements about a supposed criminal conspiracy triggered the accusations against him. He also accused a senior woman police officer and her team of fostering a false narrative against him, with the aid of the primary accused.

Even as Dileep was cleared of charges, the court found six others guilty, including the main perpetrator Sunil N S, known as Pulsar Suni. A completion of a complex legal battle now sets the stage for potential further investigation into the alleged conspiracy.
