Kochi, Aug 30: In a startling development, Pulsar Suni, the prime accused in the Malayalam actor abduction case has claimed that the mysterious 'Madam' is Kavya Madhavan, actor Dileep's wife.

Dileep is currently in judicial custody as he stands accused of being the mastermind behind the assault and abduction of a prominent woman actor on February 17 this year.

Pulsar Suni, who has been refusing to divulge the identity of the 'Madam' who is believed to have given instructions to the accused and tried to procure bail for Suni, made the revelation to the media while he was being taken to the Ernakulam Additional Sessions Court.

"Kavya. I have said the name Kavya before. I am a thief, why are you listening to the confessions of a thief?" he asked the media when he was questioned about 'Madam'.

Though Pulsar Suni claims that he has revealed this information earlier, it is for the first time that the media is hearing of it. He'd earlier concealed the identity of the person and had also said that she did not have a big role to play in the crime. He did, however, say that 'Madam' used to give him money. However, he changed his tone today and claimed that Kavya was madam and he had revealed it before.

During the course of the investigation which has shaken up Kerala, the alleged involvement of a 'Madam' had repeatedly surfaced.

The accused had allegedly told police that they had been taking instructions from a 'Madam'.

When the police questioned advocate Pheney Balakrishnan who claimed that two persons had approached him for securing bail for Suni, the lawyer told the police that the two men had referred to one 'Madam'.

Although Pulsar Suni had earlier told reporters that he would soon divulge more on the identity of this 'Madam', the police had been unable to find any leads.

Though Dileep had initially claimed that he did not know Pulsar Suni, it was later proved by police that the two did know each other. According to reports, Kavya has told the police that Suni was her driver and in one occasion she had handed over money from Dileep to him.

The office of Lakshyah, Kavya Madhavan's online boutique, was raided by the police towards the end of June on the suspicion that the pendrive containing the visuals of the actor's assault had been handed over to someone at the office.

Pulsar Suni had mentioned visiting a shop in Kakkanad in a letter allegedly sent to Dileep. However, although the police conducted the raid at the Lakshyah office in Kakkanad, they were unable to recover the pendrive.

Jan 2: A young filmmaker was allegedly assaulted by an acquaintance during an argument over CAA-NRC in neighbouring Salt Lake City, police said on Wednesday.

The police have arrested the accused following a complaint by the filmmaker.

According to a senior police officer, the argument over the contentious Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the proposed National Register of Citizens (NRC) began following a social media post by the filmmaker.

The accused allegedly went to the house of the filmmaker on Monday night and picked up an argument, which led to a scuffle.

"During the scuffle, the accused attacked the filmmaker with a knife," the senior police officer said, adding that the accused has been booked under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code.

Mumbai,  Aug 7: Unless Maharashtra Government consents to CBI investigation in the Sushant Singh Rajput's death case, it would be illegal, affecting the federal structure of the country, said actor Rhea Chakraborty's lawyer.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has registered and continued the illegality which was perpetrated at the hands of Bihar Police in connection with the case, he added.

"The Bihar Government transferred a case with which it had no jurisdiction to investigate, to CBI instead of the Mumbai Police which is the legal position. The Supreme Court is seized of the issue pursuant to the transfer petition filed by Rhea Chakraborty," said Satish Maneshinde Chakraborty's lawyer.

The Supreme Court has directed all parties to file their replies and Mumbai Police is directed to place the report of investigations, he added.

"Pending the said proceedings the CBI has registered and continued the illegality which was perpetrated at the hands of Bihar Police.

CBI being a premier investigative agency in the country should desist from taking any further steps pending the SC proceedings. Apart from the same unless the Maharashtra Government consents to CBI investigating the case ... it would be totally illegal and beyond any known legal principles, affecting the Federal Structure of the Nation," said Maneshinde.

The Special Investigation Team (SIT) of the CBI that is probing high profile cases of Vijay Mallya and AgustaWestland cases will now investigate the Sushant Singh Rajput's death case.

The investigating agency has registered a case against six accused including Bollywood actor Rhea Chakraborty and others in connection with the Rajput's death.

The sources in CBI said that six accused in the case will be summoned soon for questioning and other persons will also be called for examining which was earlier examined by Mumbai police.

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had earlier sent a recommendation to the Central Government for CBI investigation in the case filed in Patna based on the complaint of Sushant's father KK Singh against Rhea Chakraborty under sections including abetment of suicide on July 25.

Sushant was found dead at his Mumbai residence on June 14.

Days after Rajput's death, Rhea Chakraborty said she was the "girlfriend" of the 'Dil Bechara' actor while requesting a CBI inquiry in the case.

Chakraborty has also approached the Supreme Court for transfer of investigation to Mumbai in the FIR registered against her in Patna.

London, May 8: Actor Florence Pugh says the most terrifying aspect of starring in the upcoming superhero film "Black Widow" was doing the Russian accent.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe's stand-alone film, the Oscar-nominated actor plays Yelena Belova, a sister-figure to Scarlett Johansson's Natasha Romanoff/ the titular Black Widow who was trained in the Red Room.

"I was scared because my Russian accent was going to be out there and I didn't know what it sounded like.

"I'm also playing a character who no-one's seen before but they've read about her. I didn't know whether people were going to hate me!" Pugh told ELLE UK for its June issue.

The 24-year-old actor also said the idea of joining the MCU itself was quite "daunting".

"When you think of Marvel, it's big and daunting. Especially being a relatively small actor to look at it and go, 'Oh! I'm going to be a part of this', that's a big decision," she said.

"Black Widow", which was scheduled to hit the theatres on May 1, will now release on November 6 due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Directed by Cate Shortland, the film also stars David Harbour and Rachel Weisz.
