Kochi: Actor Dileep has contended in the Kerala High Court that the Crime Branch has levelled false and fabricated allegations of destruction of evidence against him and others, who are accused of conspiring to kill and threaten officials probing into the 2017 actress assault case, as well as their lawyers.
The actor, in his reply to a recent statement filed by the Crime Branch, claimed that the agency and its officers investigating into the latest case against him were peddling lies after lies.
The statement of the Crime Branch was filed in response to Dileep's plea to quash the FIR on murder conspiracy or transfer the probe to the CBI.
Denying the allegations in the statement, the actor contended that baseless accusations have been fabricated by the investigating agency with regard to the phones submitted by him and others, including his brother and brother-in-law, for forensic analysis.
In his reply, filed through advocates Philip T Varghese and Thomas T Varghese, the actor said the purpose of the forensic examination of the phones presently and recently used by the accused was not to find out material regarding the 2017 case, but to conduct a roving enquiry into the data contained in them for making allegations.
