Bhojpuri singer-actor Samar Singh got arrested and accused of the death of popular Bhojpuri actress Akanksha Dubey. The actor was captured by Varanasi police on Thursday night from Ghaziabad. Reportedly, he was hiding in a housing society in the Nandgram area of Ghaziabad.
Akanksha was found dead inside a hotel room in Varanasi on March 26. The actress was found hanging from the ceiling fan. She had gone to Varanasi to film a movie and was staying in the hotel since March 22. Her mother Madhu Dubey had filed an FIR at Sarnath police station against Samar and his brother Sanjay Singh on charges of abetment to suicide.
“A team from the Sarnath police station of the Varanasi Commissionerate had come to Ghaziabad late Thursday night. They sought the help of Ghaziabad police in nabbing Samar Singh from the Charms Castle (housing) society,” Deputy Commissioner of Police (Ghaziabad City) Nipun Agarwal said, as quoted.
Samar Singh is being presented in court for transit remand by the Varanasi police team, the DCP said on Friday morning.
