The development comes a day after the actor, who has worked in several films across multiple South Indian languages, was arrested in connection with the assault and robbery of the doctor at a flat in Kochi on November 2.

According to the doctor's complaint, he was lured to the flat on the pretext of providing medical treatment to her aunt. He was subsequently threatened, assaulted and robbed of two mobile phones worth approximately Rs 3 lakh.
