KOCHI: The police will conduct a detailed investigation as there are inconsistencies in the statement of the woman, who raised sexual allegations against actor Nivin Pauly. Her first complaint was that she was abused at a hotel in Dubai in November and December in 2023. The police have now received information that the woman was in Kerala during these months. Her travel documents will be examined to clarify this. Information will be collected from the hotel authorities.

It is reported that the police have also confirmed that Nivin had not stayed in the hotel mentioned in the complaint after 2021.
