Ashy Drongo is correct.

Could the raptor be Crested Goshawk?

Graham Walbridge and some others might know that

Maybe an immature male Violet Cuckoo? Similar to this bird but not quite as advanced in moult: ML620949646 - Violet Cuckoo - Macaulay Library

The raptor looks like Crested Goshawk.

And Ashy Drongo of the subspecies leucogenis (pale body, white cheek patch)
