Kochi: The Kerala High Court Monday deferred its verdict on the anticipatory bail plea of Malayalam actress Kavya Madhavan, whose husband and actor Dileep was arrested for plotting the February 17 actress attack.
The court has sought a report from the prosecution and only after considering it, the HC will pronounce the verdict on her plea next week.
Dileep's counsel Raman Pillai will appear for Kavya in the court.

In her plea, Kavya alleged that the investigation team in the case was being totally 'biased, partisan, and ill-motivated'.
The actress alleged that the officers in the probe team 'made open threats of arraying' her as an accused to 'cover up lacunas in the unfounded allegations against her husband Dileep and intimidate' all persons associated with him.
In her petition, Kavya alleged that the investigating team, in a systematic way, is 'torturing, humiliating and harassing' the petitioner in public by 'selectively allowing a hard-core criminal Pulsar Suni', who is the first accused in the case, to make 'preplanned, piecemeal disclosures' to media while being escorted to courts in more than a dozen pending cases.
She accused the probe team of 'selectively leaking news' to the media against her to carry out 'valueless but targeted media trial' on the pending case.
She also said her husband had never seen, met or talked to the prime accused in the case, Pulsar Suni.
But on the fabricated false allegation that Dileep committed criminal conspiracy with Suni, he was 'arrayed' as an accused in the crime, she alleged.
'Kavya won't be named accused'
Meanwhile, the police have said that Kavya and director Nadhirshah, who was summoned for questioning twice, would not be named as an accused in the current stage of probe. Investigation against them is only progressing, police sources said.
