Sandhya Stampede Case: Hearing On Allu Arjun’s Remand Postponed

The Nampally court heard Icon star Allu Arjun concerning the stampede incident at Sandhya Theater during the screening of Pushpa 2. The public prosecutor requested additional time to file counter-affidavits, prompting the court to adjourn the next hearing to Monday.

Chikkadapally police are expected to submit their counter-affidavits at the next session. While it was initially anticipated that Allu Arjun would appear in person, his lawyers requested a virtual appearance, citing concerns over safety and security.

The court granted this request, allowing him to attend the proceedings virtually. Arguments were heard, and with the conclusion of his 14-day remand, the court also postponed the hearing related to the extension of Allu Arjun’s judicial remand to January 10.

The case stems from a tragic stampede that occurred during the movie’s screening, resulting in the death of a woman and sparking widespread controversy in the Telugu states. The incident has caused a major stir, drawing significant public and media attention.

Police investigations have revealed critical details, which have intensified further after the arrest and release of Allu Arjun.
