Kochi: According to reports, the complaint filed by actor Dileep that he was repeatedly targetted in actress abduction case is being cold shouldered by the probe officials investigating the case.
Like Dileep, another prominent actor-cum-director too had filed a complaint with the police and even after 2 months, neither Dileep nor Nadhirshah’s statement recorded or an FIR registered in the case.
Apart from conducting only preliminary investigation into the complaint, police have not taken any further action. It is learnt that police are deliberately delaying action on the complaint.
It was only after Dileep told mediapersons yesterday that he was being blackmailed and threatened for money, did the police ask Dileep, Nadhirshah and DIleep’s manager Appunni to appear and give their statement.
Police are examining the messages received in Appunni’s and Nadhirshah’s phone to ascertain the veracity of the statement.
Meanwhile, Ernakulam Rural SP A V George told Mathrubhumi News that no further probe was held based on Dileep’s complaint and the ongoing investigations are part of the actress abduction case.
