Malayalam actor Vincy Aloshious files complaint against actor Shine Tom Chacko

Actor Vincy Aloshious has filed a complaint against actor Shine Tom Chacko with the Film Chamber and the Internal Complaints Committee of the film Soothravakyam. Earlier, she had posted an Instagram video alleging that an actor who uses illicit drugs had misbehaved with her. Vincy also announced that she would no longer act alongside actors who use drugs.

 

Soothravakyam, directed by Srikanth Kandragula, stars Vincy, Chacko, and Deepak Parambol.

 

Film Chamber General Secretary Saji Nanthyatt told THE WEEK that a monitoring committee will convene on Monday, April 21, to examine the issue and take action on the complaint. The actors' organisation, A.M.M.A., also came out in support of Vincy, who has submitted the complaint to them as well.

 

Meanwhile, during a DANSAF raid at a hotel in Kochi on the night of April 16, actor Shine Tom Chacko allegedly exited his room and fled the premises. The investigation team, comprising five officials, was raiding his room when the actor escaped through a window and ran out through the hotel reception. The raid was conducted on the basis of the information that Chacko and his friends have been using drugs. The DANSAF team suspects that the actor and his friends were tipped off about the raid in advance.

 

Back in 2015, Chacko was arrested in a cocaine case. But this year, he was acquitted in the case. However, the Ernakulam Additional Sessions Court strongly criticized the police for lapses in this 2015 drug bust case.
