The Hyderabad police have apprehended Kanthi Dutt, the head of Tritiya Jewelers, on charges of defrauding prominent celebrities. The victims are Samantha, Keerthy Suresh, and fashion designer Shilpa Reddy. The Jubilee Hills police officials are investigating the case and have found that a massive scam orchestrated through Dutt's venture, Sustain Cart.

Popular fashion designer Shilpa Reddy,who is the sister of actor Samrat Reddy, filed a complaint after falling victim to Dutt's fraudulent schemes. The police also received more complaints from others, prompting them to probe deeper into the case.

Dutt allegedly lured celebrities and investors with promises of lucrative returns through Sustain Cart. It is reported that over ₹100 crores were swindled from high-profile celebrities like Keerthy Suresh, Samantha, and Bollywood actress Parineeti Chopra, among others.

The police officials have collected enough evidence and finally nabbed Kanthi Dutt. Authorities are now probing further to recover the funds and identify other victims involved in this high-profile fraud.
