High-Profile Arrest – Why police took Allu Arjun ( Pushpa 2) in custody ?

In a dramatic turn of events, popular Telugu actor Allu Arjun was sent to 14-day judicial custody on Friday by a local court in Telangana. The decision comes in connection with a tragic stampede at Sandhya Theatre during the premiere of his much-anticipated movie, Pushpa-2. The stampede resulted in the death of Revathi, a 35-year-old woman, and left her young son critically injured.

Legal Battle Begins
Following the court’s order, Allu Arjun moved the Telangana High Court, seeking urgent relief and the quashing of the FIR filed against him. The FIR, lodged at the Chikkadpally police station, implicates the actor, his security team, and the theatre management under sections 105 and 118(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).

Chronology of Events
The tragic incident unfolded on December 4 when Allu Arjun appeared at Sandhya Theatre alongside his security personnel. The crowd, eager to catch a glimpse of the actor, surged uncontrollably, leading to a stampede. The chaos was further exacerbated by alleged lapses in crowd management, prompting the police to resort to lathi charges.

Police reports reveal that the theatre management had prior knowledge of the actor’s visit but failed to arrange adequate security measures or separate entry and exit points for Arjun and his team.

Arrest and Police Action
Earlier on Friday, a police team led by the Assistant Commissioner arrived at Allu Arjun’s residence to take him into custody. Family members present at the scene witnessed the actor being escorted to the police station under heavy security.

Authorities have also arrested three individuals, including a co-partner of the theatre, for their alleged negligence in managing the event.

Plea for Justice and Accountability
The family of the deceased woman has expressed outrage over the incident, holding all parties involved accountable for the tragic loss. Arjun’s legal team, however, maintains that he should not be held responsible for the failures of event organizers and theatre management.

The Road Ahead
The Telangana High Court is expected to hear Allu Arjun’s plea in the coming days. While fans of the actor are rallying in his support, the tragedy has cast a shadow over the much-hyped release of Pushpa-2. Questions about accountability and safety measures at public events have taken center stage, sparking widespread debate.

As the case unfolds, all eyes remain on the legal proceedings, which will determine the responsibility for this devastating incident
