Manju Warrier, who is reportedly the 11th witness in the actress abduction case was called by the prosecution as a prime witness. She was reportedly called to reinstate prosecution's claims that the victim (actress) was attacked by accused (Dileep and other nine people) because of a personal vendetta.
