Actor Dileep, accused of conspiracy in the Kochi actress attack case, "appeared" before the Angamaly judicial first class magistrate via Skype on Tuesday.

The magistrate had earlier given the green light to the police's request to present Dileep through video conferencing, after the probe team informed the court that there is security threat in presenting the actor in person.

Is suicide threat the reason why Dileep cannot be taken out of jail?

The police stated that whenever the actor was presented at the court before, there has been threat to the security as hundreds thronged the jail and court premises. Also several vehicles, including media, followed the police van from Aluva sub-jail to the court in Angamaly and back.

Meanwhile, the court has extended Dileep's remand period for another 14 days, meaning he will be judicial custody till August 8. The actor informed the court via Skype that he does not have any complaints regarding the order.
