Actor Allu Arjun granted conditional bail in Sandhya 70 MM theatre stampede case, must visit police weekly.
The Nampally court of Hyderabad granted a conditional bail to actor Allu Arjun on Friday (January 3, 2025) in connection with the ongoing investigation of the Sandhya 70 MM theatre stampede case, which claimed the life of a woman and left her son hospitalised during the benefit show of Pushpa 2 on December 4.
The court directed the actor to submit two sureties of ₹50,000 each. Among the conditions imposed by the court, the actor has been asked to visit the Chikkadpally Station House Officer (SHO) every Sunday for two months or until the chargesheet is filed.
The actor was arrested on December 13 after a case of culpable homicide not amounting to murder was booked against him.
The Nampally Court had sent the actor to judicial custody for 14 days and he was lodged in the Chanchalguda jail for a night. His lawyer approached the High Court, which granted him interim bail the same day, asking him to move the trial court for regular bail.
Meanwhile, the proceedings regarding his judicial remand have been adjourned to January 10.
