KOCHI: The police will question actor and producer Vijay Babu in connection with the sexual abuse case of the actress on Monday as well. The investigation officer has directed the actor to appear at the Ernakulam South police station at 9 am.

The actor was questioned for 10 hours last day. The interrogation was led by assistant commissioner Y Nizamudeen. Vijay Babu told the police that he had consensual sex with the actress and the reason behind the case was resentment over not being given a chance in the film.

However, there are strong evidence against Vijay Babu, said the police. A famous singer and his wife, who were in the luxury hotel on the day of the abuse, are likely to be testified.

Meantime, the court will consider the actor’s anticipatory bail plea on Thursday. ‘I have faith in the court and will completely cooperate with the police’, said Vijay Babu, last day.

The actor arrived in Kochi from Dubai at around 9:30 am on Wednesday after absconding for 39 days. He appeared at the police station after visiting a temple. The actress had lodged a complaint against Vijay Babu on April 22 alleging that he abused her after promising chance in films.
