Hyderabad: ‘Pushpa 2’ actor Allu Arjun’s house has been vandalised in the wake of the stampede outside Sandhya theatre in which a woman died. A case has been registered against six members of the Osmania University Joint Action Committee (OUJAC) for alleged involvement in the incident. DCP West Zone, Hyderabad said that strict action has been initiated against the accused.
The incident took place around 4:45 pm. Some people reached outside the ‘Pushpa’ actor’s residence shouting slogans and carrying placards and started sloganeering. One of the protesters climbed into the premises and started throwing tomatoes.
The protesters also manhandled security staff and damaged some flower pots on the ramp. Footage from the spot shows broken pots, broken glass and scattered plants outside Allu Arjun’s house, which was caused by stone pelting.
The DCP said, ‘On December 22, at around 4.45 pm, some people suddenly reached outside actor Allu Arjun’s house in Jubilee Hills with placards in their hands and started shouting slogans. One of them tried to enter the premises of his house. He climbed the wall of his house and started throwing tomatoes. When the security staff protested and asked the person to come down from the wall, he started arguing with them. He came down from the wall and started scuffling with the security staff. Not only this, he damaged some flower pots kept along the ramp’.
The officer said, ‘On receiving information, Jubilee Hills police reached the spot and detained six people. All of them claim to be part of Osmania Osmania University Joint Action Committee’.
Tensions have increased after public statements between the actor and the government. According to Jubilee Hills police, members of the Osmania University Joint Action Committee protested outside Allu Arjun’s house on Sunday and raised slogans with placards. However, neither the actor nor his family has lodged any complaint yet. Further information is awaited from the Jubilee Hills police.
