Her statement came soon after the police registered a case against her lawyer, Krishna Raj, over a Facebook post he had shared that allegedly hurt religious sentiments.

“Why are they attacking me like this. I stick to the statement I gave. Don’t hurt people who are around me,” she said at a press conference in Kerala’s Palakkad on Saturday, before reportedly collapsing amid a bout of fits.

Earlier this week, police registered a case against Suresh and senior politician P C George based on a complaint from Left legislator and former minister K T Jaleel that Suresh had made defamatory comments against him.

Suresh had also alleged that Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan had carried a bag of currency to the UAE. She also dragged Vijayan’s wife Kamala and their daughter Veena into the controversy.
