KOCHI: Pulsar Suni, the main accused in the actor assault case, made a revelation during a sting operation conducted by Reporter Channel. He revealed that it was actor Dileep, the accused in the case, who gave him the quotation to attack the actress. Pulsar Suni said Dileep had assured Rs 1.5 crore as remuneration for the attack. Suni said that he did not get the full amount and that Dileep has to pay Rs 80 lakh again and accepted money from Dileep several times when needed.


The actress was attacked on February 17 in 2017, while she was on her way from Thrissur to the location in Ernakulam. Suni and his team created a fake traffic accident and got into the actress' vehicle. Driver Martin entrusted to pick the actress also joined the attackers. They roamed around Kochi with the actress and sexually abused her for more than an hour. The attackers recorded the visuals on a mobile phone.


They later abandoned the vehicle and fled. The accused was trapped when the actress went ahead with the case. When Suni came to surrender in the Ernakulam court, the police caught him dramatically. He was apprehended by inspector Ananthalal when he ran into the court hall. The police got hints on Dileep's involvement in the attack after weeks. Dileep was arrested on July 10 in 2017. He was granted bail after spending 86 days in jail. There are nine accused in the case, including actor Dileep, who is the eighth accused. The trial court had granted bail to Pulsar Suni with strict conditions in last September.
