Thiruvananthapuram, July 24 (IBNS): Malayalam actor Dileep, who was arrested over alleged abduction and molestation of an actress, was denied bail by the High Court on Monday, media reports said.

Dileep, consequently, will have to stay in the judicial custody.

The actor  was earlier denied bail by the  the Angamaly Judicial First Class Magistrate Court.

The special prosecutor argued in the court that the accused would destroy the evidences against him, if  he was granted bail.

The actress, who shared screen with Dileep in several films, stated in her complaint that she was abducted on the night of Feb 19 this year while she was travelling from Thrissur to Kochi.

She alleged that she was molested and her pictures taken by the abductors who later dropped her by the roadside near the house of a film producer, according to media reports.

The actress also named Sunil Kumar or Pulsar Suni as the leader of the gang who abducted her, in her police complaint, reports suggested.

Sunil was later arrested by the police.
