THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Actor Siddique appeared before the special investigation team for questioning in the sexual assault case. On Saturday morning, Siddique reached the Thiruvananthapuram Cantonment Station for the second round of questioning.
According to the young actress's complaint, Siddique summoned her to Mascot Hotel in Thiruvananthapuram on the pretext of discussing a movie role but ended up sexually molesting her. Siddique himself has admitted to meeting the complainant in Thiruvananthapuram in 2016.
The Supreme Court earlier stayed the actor's arrest for two weeks. Siddique went absconding after the High Court rejected his anticipatory bail and resurfaced only after getting bail from the Supreme Court.
It is reported that Siddique informed the SIT team about maintaining contact with the complainant even after the alleged incident inside the Mascot Hotel. However, no documents proving the veracity of the claims have been produced.
Siddique was summoned for questioning by the investigating team last Monday. However, the actor was released without questioning as he did not produce the documents requested by the police. Siddique's arrest is likely after today's interrogation.
