Hyderabad: Actor Allu Arjun has been granted regular bail by a local court in connection with the December 4 stampede at a Hyderabad theatre during the premiere of his film Pushpa 2: The Rule. The incident resulted in the tragic death of a 35-year-old woman and the hospitalization of her nine-year-old son due to injuries caused by asphyxiation.
The stampede occurred at the Sandhya 70MM Theatre, where a massive crowd had gathered to see Mr. Arjun and music director Devi Sri Prasad, who were attending the premiere. The chaotic scene unfolded as fans jostled to catch a glimpse of the actor.
Following the incident, the Hyderabad Police registered a case against Mr. Arjun, his security team, and the theatre management. They were charged under Sections 105 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) and 118(1) (voluntarily causing hurt or grievous hurt by dangerous weapons or means) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
Initially, Mr. Arjun was granted interim bail after his arrest. The regular bail granted on Friday marks the next legal step in the ongoing investigation into the tragic event.
