No state role in Allu Arjun arrest: CM

Revanth Reddy says his govt will not show deference to celebrities accused of wrongdoings

- 

ASSERTING that the law would take its own course, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on Friday made it clear that there was no role of the state government in the arrest of actor Allu Arjun for the death of M Revathi at the Sandhya Theatre.

The chief minister's reaction came during a chit chat with the media in Parliament premises. He made it clear that the government would not support anyone, however famous he or she may be, when it comes to keeping the law.

Revanth also said that the police will take action as per the law, in both the Pushpa-2 incident and in the Manchu Mohan Babu case. Later in the day, the chief minister told a television news channel that "Arjun didn't simply return to his home after watching the film (at Sandhya Theatre)".
