New Delhi: The police have identified Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) player KP Apanna from the CCTV footage in connection with the molestation case involving his RCB teammate Luke Pomersbach.

The police have identified Appanna as the one who returned with Luke to the victim's hotel room. The police also say that it is possible that members of the team approached the victim after the match to withdraw the complaint.

The victim had complained that five people including three IPL players had threatened her. Meanwhile, the Delhi Commission for Women is expected to send a notice to RCB team owner Siddartha Mallya for his tweets on the incident.

The victim has said that if the Kingfisher scion doesn't apologise, she will file a defamation suit against him.
