Actress attack: Police ready with foolproof charge sheet against Dileep

Dileep has been the 11th accused in the case, according to the existing charge sheet, which was filed before his arrest in July. Pulsar Suni, who abducted and sexually assaulted the actress, has been the prime accused in the case so far.

However, the probe team is planning to submit that Suni or the other perpetrators didn't have any personal enmity towards the actress, like Dileep did. The actor allegedly hired Suni, orchestrated and paid for the attack, which should make him the prime accused, according to police sources.

Also, all charges levelled against Suni and the others, including gang rape, is applicable to Dileep as well, if he is proved to be the main conspirator.

Dileep was arrested on charges of conspiracy in the actress attack case on July 10 and spent 85 days in judicial remand before he was released on bail on his fifth attempt earlier this month.
