In a statement to PTI, Arjun's lawyer Ashok Reddy slammed the jail authorities for not releasing the actor on time. Also read: Varun Dhawan defends Allu Arjun after arrest: Can't blame one person Saying that they would take strong action against the jail authorities, Reddy told PTI, ''You should question the government and the department as to why they have not released the accused. The High Court order is very specific. Forthwith, the moment you (prison authorities) receive the order, ( they should) release him. Despite the clear order, they have not released, they have to answer. This is an illegal detention. We will take legal steps.” In another statement to ANI, the lawyer said, "Order copy of the high court clearly directing the Superintendent of jail to release Allu Arjun forthwith and Superintendent has directed to ensure to release but despite the order...they are not releasing him. Allu Arjun's arrest and other details On Friday (Dec 13), the actor was arrested from his residence in Hyderabad in a case connected with the stampede at Sandhya Theatre that left a woman named Revathi dead and a minor boy critically injured. It was said that the actor arrived at the premiere without any prior information, due to which the security and police was not able to control the crowd, leading to a stampede-like situation and a death of a woman. However, this allegation was proved wrong by the lawyers of the actor during the bail hearing on Friday. They told the judge that the police were informed about Allu Arjun's surprise appearance. The actor was granted interim bail from the High Court after the local court sent the actor to judicial custody for 14 days. He has been granted bail for four weeks on a personal bond of Rs 50,000.
