Following the Supreme Court’s stay on his arrest in a rape case, actor Siddique, who had been in hiding, has reappeared and is now set to face questioning by the investigation team. Legal counsel advised Siddique to present himself for interrogation today, even before receiving an official notice from the inquiry team. In addition, Siddique has been instructed to gather and submit evidence that could substantiate his claim that the complainant in the case has ulterior motives.
Siddique is prepared to present any concrete evidence supporting his arguments in court, including proof of malicious intent behind the accusations. The Supreme Court has also ordered that, even if Siddique’s arrest is eventually recorded, he must be released on bail, which has provided the actor with a sense of security. Siddique remains confident after the Supreme Court’s critical stance towards the state government during the hearing of his petition.
However, the situation remains challenging for Siddique, as the investigating team has gathered solid evidence supporting the allegations made by the complainant. In response, Siddique is working to collect evidence to counter these claims. After the Supreme Court granted a two-week stay on his arrest, Siddique met with his legal team in Kochi to prepare for his defense. The case is expected to evolve further in the coming days.
