A court in Nampally is scheduled to hear the Sandhya Theatre stampede case on Monday. The proceedings involve 23 accused, including actor Allu Arjun, while the court has insisted that all accused must appear before further hearings continue.
Actor Allu Arjun failed to appear before the Nampally Criminal Court in the Sandhya Theatre stampede case. The court sought an explanation for his absence, accepted an absence petition from his counsel and adjourned the matter to July 6.
Actor Allu Arjun is set to appear before the Nampally Criminal Court in the Sandhya Theatre stampede case after the court rejected his request for a virtual hearing. Trial proceedings are expected to begin following his appearance in the case.
Hyderabad police have filed a charge sheet against actor Allu Arjun and 22 others over a stampede at Sandhya Theatre during the Pushpa 2 premiere last December, which led to the death of a woman and injuries to her son.
The actor is cited as accused no. 11 in the case, and the others accused are his security team members, theater staff and the owners. The actor filed a regular bail petition before the court which is scheduled for hearing on December 30
