The Special Investigation Team set up to probe this case has not yet interrogated Nadirshah about this detail. Previously, Suni said that he had been given the money by Nadirshah’s manager on the sets of Kattapanayile Hrithik Roshan, a film directed by Nadirshah. The police had already gathered evidence using mobile tower location documents to prove that Suni was in fact at Thodupuzha at the time. Nadirshah has submitted a plea for anticipatory bail, and in his application, he has mentioned that the police asked him to confirm that he gave Suni the money. He also alleged that the police is forcing him to provide a statement that is in favour of the prosecution. His bail plea hearing was postponed to 13 September from 8 September. Dileep is currently lodged at the Aluva sub-jail. He applied for bail thrice , and it was rejected all three times by a trial court and the Kerala High Court on the grounds that the actor may influence witnesses and contaminate evidence.
