KOCHI: The Crime Branch said that actress Manju Warrier had recognized the voices of actor Dileep and his relatives in the audio recordings related to the murder conspiracy case. This includes audio recordings that surfaced the other day.


Earlier, Dileep had admitted that some of the audio recordings were his own. However, he argued that some of the important audio clips were recorded using a mimicry artist. When questioned along with Dileep, director Balachandra Kumar had said that the sound recorded on the tab was genuine and not fake.

On February 8, Dileep, his sister-in-law Suraj and brother Anoop were taken to the Chithranjali studio, Kakkanad to collect sound samples. The probe team will obtain the results next week.

The 'Mirror Image' report from a private lab in Mumbai provided crucial evidence, including audio recordings, in the actress assault case. The details of four phones that Dileep had sent to Lab Systems Pvt Ltd in Mumbai to hide the evidence in the conspiracy case were recovered from the hard disk here. Crime Branch sources said a detailed investigation is underway. The Crime Branch has started proceedings to recover the iMac laptop, iPad and phones seized by the lawyers from Sai Shankar, the seventh accused in the case.
