Allu Arjun Arrested Days After Woman Killed In Stampede At 'Pushpa 2' Screening

Telugu actor Allu Arjun has been arrested in connection with the stampede outside a Hyderabad theatre last week in which one woman was killed. The stampede broke after the hugely popular actor made an unscheduled appearance at the theatre showing his new film 'Pusha 2: The Rule'.

Hyderabad Police had earlier filed a case against the 41-year-old star and several others, including members of his security team and the management of the Sandhya Theatre in the city.

Charges of culpable homicide not amounting to murder and voluntarily causing hurt were filed.

A 35-year-old woman was killed and her nine-year-old son was injured in the stampede that erupted as the massive crowd jostled and shoved each other to catch a glimpse of Allu Arjun on his unannounced arrival; Allu Arjun and the film's music director, Devi Sr Prasad, arrived unexpectedly.

Hyderabad Police Commissioner CV Anand had said then, "There was no intimation from the side of theatre management or actors' team... that they will be visiting the theatre..." and noted also that no separate entry, or exit, had been provided, even though the theatre knew they were coming.
