Supreme Court on Tuesday extended the interim protection from arrest till further orders granted to Malayalam film actor Siddique in an alleged rape case. A bench of Justices Bela M Trivedi and Satish Chandra Sharma allowed Siddique to file his rejoinder affidavit to the status report filed by Kerala police, which alleged lack of cooperation in the investigation on his part.
Senior advocate V Giri, appearing for Siddique sought time to file a rejoinder affidavit to the status report but claimed that his client had been cooperating with the police's investigation.
Senior advocate Ranjit Kumar, appearing for the Kerala police, said Siddique was hindering the investigation and had destroyed electronic devices besides deleting social media accounts.
The bench pointed out the survivor had lodged the complaint eight years after the incident.
Kumar said the survivor was only reiterating the incident on social media and had mustered the courage after the Justice (retired) Hema Committee report, which highlighted the situation prevailing in the Malayalam film industry.
