The Ernakulam sessions court recently granted temporary bail to Sunil NS alias Pulsar Suni, the prime accused in the 2017 Kerala actress assault case, to perform his father’s last rites.
Sessions judge Honey M Varghese permitted Suni to visit his house at Perumbavoor between 8 am and 4 pm today.
He was instructed to interact only with close relatives, and not contact any witnesses or give any media interviews. The application was moved by Suni on Thursday after his father passed away in the morning.
Previously in the infamous case of 2017, a prominent female actor was abducted, driven around in a car, photographed, and sexually assaulted, allegedly at the behest of cine actor Dileep.
Therefore, the trial in the case is currently underway at the Principal Sessions Court in Ernakulam.
Suni is the first accused in the case. He allegedly revealed to investigators that prominent figures from the Malayalam Film Industry, including Dileep, weren’t only involved in the crime but were also the masterminds behind it.
Firstly, Suni first moved to the Kerala High Court for bail in March 2022 which got rejected. Then, he moved to the Supreme Court, which in July 2022 declined to grant him bail.
However, the top court said that if the trial is not concluded within a reasonable time, Suni may renew his bail application before the High Court.
Subsequently, he moved the High Court again which rejected his bail plea on March 6. He then moved the Supreme Court on March 29 with an appeal that is still pending.
