The ongoing interrogation was based on a detailed questionnaire with around 32 questions, which prepared by the police regarding the incident.

Police sources stated that, during the interrogation, Shine stated that he did not realise it was the police who had knocked on his hotel room door during the narcotic raid in Kochi, and that he fled out of fear, mistaking them for individuals intending to harm him.

Meanwhile, Shine appeared before the police in response to a formal notice asking him to explain his actions.

The notice was served after officers visited his residence in Thrissur, after failing to reach him by phone. Since the actor was not home at the time, his father, C P Chacko, accepted the notice on his behalf.
