Telugu superstar Allu Arjun was released from Hyderabad jail early Saturday morning
Telugu superstar Allu Arjun was released from Hyderabad jail early Saturday morning after being granted interim bail by the Telangana High Court. The actor had been arrested in connection with a stampede outside a theatre screening his film Pushpa 2 earlier this month, which tragically claimed the life of a woman.
Arjun exited the jail through a different gate to avoid the crowd, according to reports. His release came hours after a lower court had remanded him to 14 days of judicial custody.
Prior to his release, heavy security was deployed outside the Chanchalguda Central Jail in Hyderabad.
Allu Arjun's father-in-law, father-in-law Kancharla Chandrasekhar Reddy also came to the jail to receive him.
Allu Arjun's lawyer, Ashok Reddy expressed displeasure over the actor not being allowed to come out in the night despite him getting bail.
Speaking to reporters, Ashok Reddy said, "They received an order copy from High Court but despite that, they didn't release the accused (Allu Arjun)...they will have to answer...this is illegal detention, we will take legal action...as of now he has been released."
