The advocate said the judgment underscored the absence of credible evidence linking the actor to the conspiracy alleged by the prosecution.His comments mirrored the tone set by Dileep as he emerged from the court, stating that what unfolded over the years was the product of coercion, manipulation, and deliberate targeting by individuals within the investigating machinery. Dileep described the verdict as an affirmation of truth, arguing that the prosecution's case had been built on what he called distorted narratives and unsupported claims.
