In the actress attack case, AMMA general secretary Idavela Babu has turned hostile. During the cross examination on Thursday he gave a statement different from the one he had given to the police after the incident.

The attacked actress had earlier complained to the organisation that Dileep had spoiled her opportunities in films but the organisation was of the stand that they hadn't received the complaint in writing.

However, Idavela Babu told the police that he felt that there was substance in the actress' complaint and he had talked to Dileep about it. He had also asked Dileep why he interfered in unnecessary things. During a stage programme, there was quarrel between Kavya and the actress, after which they stopped talking to each other.

Interestingly, in today's trial of the case, Idavela Babu changed his previous statement. " I don't remember the actress complaining to me that Dileep had spoiled her opportunities,” he submitted.

Soon after this, the prosecution declared that Idavela Babu had turned hostile.
