Hyderabad: A local court in Nampally here on Friday remanded popular film actor Allu Arjun to 14 days judicial remand in connection with the case related to stampede at Sandhya theatre on December 4.
The court remanded Allu Arjun to judicial custody after the Hyderabad police arrested and produced him before the court at Nampally criminal complex here on Friday afternoon.
A few minutes after the arrest of Allu Arjun by the Chikkadpally police in connection with the stampede at Sandhya theatre during the screening of Pushpa-2 movie on December 4, the police took him to the Gandhi hospital for medical checkup.
Accompanied by the police escort team, the Chikkadpally police produced him in the court. Anticipating that a large number of Allu Arjun’s fans would throng the court, the Hyderabad police made massive security arrangements.
A rope party police team was also deployed at the main entrance of the court to prevent the entry of others into the court premises. The police allowed only those who are having valid identity cards and the court duty staff into the premises.
Earlier at the Gandhi hospital, Allu Arjun waved to the crowd after undergoing a medical examination, which is mandatory as per norms after the arrest.
