11 Arrested for Kidnap, Assault of Kannada Film Director; Actor Among Accused
Eleven people, including a social media influencer, were arrested for kidnapping and assaulting director T. A. Anish over a Rs 2.5 lakh loan and Rs 5-6 lakh film investment dispute.
- Earlier this month, T. A. Anish was allegedly abducted and brutally assaulted in Bengaluru, with police arresting 11 accused including actress Aishwarya and registering the case at Adugodi police station.
- Preliminary findings link the assault to T. A. Anish's unreleased film Jeevanada Bhashe and an alleged Rs 2.5 lakh unpaid loan plus a Rs 5-6 lakh film investment dispute.
- Lured with a fake car-sale meeting, T. A. Anish was taken to a house near Mandaragiri Hill where assailants led by Ashirav attacked him with sticks, stole gold ornaments and 30,000 in cash, and forced ATM withdrawals using his card.
- Police say investigators recovered mobile phones, gold, cash and vehicle, and all accused have been remanded to custody as digital and financial records are examined.
- Investigators now suspect that acquaintances of Anish were involved, prompting a wider probe, as the regional film community raises concern about risks in independent filmmaking.
