Kochi: The court has adjourned till January 20 the petition filed by the prosecution seeking a further inquiry into the actress’ assault case.
The prosecution has filed an application seeking further investigation against actor Dileep in the case. The trial court in the case considered the prosecution’s application. In the wake of the revelations made by director Balachandra Kumar, the prosecution demanded a further investigation and adjournment of the ongoing trial.
While considering the petition today, the police submitted to the court the revelations made by Balachandra Kumar yesterday. The court has been directed to inquire into the matter and submit a report before the 20th.
The court orally noted that it was also time to appoint a new prosecutor in the event that the second prosecutor resigned, alleging that the trial court’s position under the witness examination weakened the prosecution.
