The Crime Branch will question PC George's son Shone George in connection with a case over setting up a fake WhatsApp group for spreading false information to assist Dileep, who is accused in the actor assault case.
Shone will be quizzed at the Kottayam Crime Branch SP Office on Tuesday. The Crime Branch had, last Thursday, raided his residence.
The case against Shone George is that he created a WhatsApp group to spread false information about the survivor of the 2017 actor assault case.
The alleged activity came to light when investigators checked the mobile phone of Dileep's brother Anoop in connection with a conspiracy case. They stumbled upon the fake WhatsApp group called 'Dileepine Pootanam' (Dileep must be trapped).
It is understood that the profiles in the group -- including that of Dileep's ex-wife and leading Malayalam actor Manju Warrier and DGP B Sandhya -- were fake.
It is alleged that chats were sent on the WhatsApp group to create an impression that Dileep was framed in the conspiracy case. Shone is suspected of setting up the WhatsApp group.
PC George, whose residence the Crime Branch raided earlier this month in connection with the case, had then claimed the phone mentioned by the investigators had gone missing in 2019.
Shone had said the Crime Branch seized three mobile phones and a tab from his residence. He had claimed that though he knows Dileep well, he was not close to the actor's brother Anoop.
