Actor Dileep has alleged that certain TV channels and online news portals are trying to malign his reputation by linking him to the Kochi actress attack case and stated he is prepared to undergo brain mapping or lie detector test to prove his innocence.

In a Facebook post, Dileep stressed  that he was in no way connected to the abduction of the popular Malayalam actress back in February.

"I wish to make it very clear that I am in not involved in any criminal cases. Some social media groups, online news websites and TV channels have conspired against me and are determined to malign me. They are doing this purposely to destroy my image and take away the support I have from the industry and my fans," Dileep posted on his Facebook page.

"It is interesting to note that this is happening at a time when my new films are to be released shortly. I am ready to take part in any tests, including narco analysis, brain mapping and lie detector test, to clear my name. I want to thank my fellow actors Salim Kumar and Aju Varghese for coming out in support of me," the actor added.

The post comes after Pulsar Suni, the prime accused in the case, gave a statement to the police that Dileep was aware of the attack. The actor's name has been linked to the case ever since the attack happened in February.

Pulsar Suni's jail inmate blackmailed Nadirshah, asked for Rs 1.5 crore: Dileep hints of conspiracy to tarnish 

Last week, the case took a turn with Dileep's friend and popular director Nadirshah alleging that he received a call from a close aide of Pulsar Suni, linking Dileep to the case.

Shah told reporters that back in March he got a call from a person named Vishnu, who asked him to tell Dileep that if the latter does not give him Rs 1.50 crore, he would be forced to inform the police that the superstar was involved in the conspiracy. On Sunday night, the Kochi police arrested Vishnu and his aide on charges of blackmailing.

The young actress, popular across South Indian industries, was kidnapped on February 17 while she was travelling from Thrissur to Kochi. The attackers later dumped near the house of actor-director Lal, who informed the police. The actress was allegedly molested during the abduction.
