Hyderabad Police has accused Allu Arjun that he reached Sandhya Theater without giving information and due to this the stampede could not be controlled there. Allu Arjun has said in his clarification that after the stampede, he had left the Sandhya theater and had also informed the police about his arrival. At the same time, Hyderabad Police says that even after the incident, Allu Arjun continued watching the movie sitting in the evening theatre. In this case, Hyderabad Police had also arrested Allu Arjun on 13 December. However, he was granted bail by the Telangana High Court.
Hyderabad Police had interrogated Allu Arjun for about 4 hours on Tuesday. The police asked Allu Arjun many questions about the incident. He also asked whether he knew that the police had not given permission for Sandhya to go to the theatre. Politics has also heated up regarding the arrest of Allu Arjun. BJP and BRS have alleged that the Congress government of Telangana arrested Allu Arjun due to political malice. At the same time, Telangana CM Revanth Reddy has termed these allegations as false. Now, with the emergence of fresh CCTV footage, Allu Arjun’s stand may become stronger that the stampede at Sandhya Theater was not due to his arrival, but had already taken place.
