Malayalam actor Dileep, who was recently acquitted in the high-profile Kerala actress assault case, has demanded an investigation into what he alleges was a deliberate conspiracy to falsely implicate him.
Speaking to The Hindu just hours after the court ruling, Dileep said he was the “real victim” of the case and accused a group of police officials of framing him for “personal gains and popularity.”
🔴 Dileep Claims False Implication
Dileep asserted that certain officers intentionally misled the government by presenting him as the mastermind behind the 2017 abduction and assault of a prominent actress.
He alleged that there was a coordinated effort to:
- Fabricate evidence
- Manipulate the investigation
- Publicly portray him as the conspirator
🔍 Calls for a Fresh Probe
The actor has now urged authorities to initiate a detailed inquiry into the alleged conspiracy. According to him, uncovering the truth is essential not just for clearing his name completely but also for exposing those whom he claims abused their official positions.
📌 Background
The actress assault case is one of the most widely discussed criminal cases in Kerala’s recent history. Dileep was accused of orchestrating the crime but consistently maintained his innocence throughout the trial.
His acquittal has triggered strong reactions across Kerala’s film industry and political circles — and his latest allegation is expected to set off renewed debate over the integrity of the investigation.
