Hyderabd ( Journalist File ) : BRS Working President K.T. Rama Rao (KTR) has condemned the arrest of actor Allu Arjun in connection with the tragic stampede at Sandhya Theatre. KTR described the arrest of the national award-winning star as an "extreme reaction" that reflects the ruling government's sense of insecurity.
While expressing his condolences for the victims of the stampede, KTR raised the question of who was truly responsible for the incident. He argued that it was wrong to treat Allu Arjun as a common criminal when he was not directly responsible for the tragedy. The actor should not have been subjected to such treatment, he added.
KTR also criticized the government’s heavy-handed approach and suggested that the same principle should be applied to arrest Chief Minister Revanth Reddy for the deaths caused during the Hydra demolitions.
Earlier today, Allu Arjun was arrested by Chikkadpally police in relation to the stampede, which resulted in the death of a woman. The actor faces charges under sections BNS 118(1), BNS 105, and Redwith 3/5, with Section 105 being a non-bailable offense that could lead to a prison sentence ranging from five to ten years.
