Telugu film producer Bandla Ganesh was arrested by the Banjara Hills police on Wednesday after a court in AP issued a non-bailable warrant against him.
Mr. Ganesh is accused in a cheque bounce case, which was registered against him in Kadapa, inspector N. Kalinga Rao said.
A few months ago, Mr. Ganesh issued a bank cheque amount to ₹ 10 lakh to one Mahesh, a businessman from Kadapa which bounced, following which the latter lodged a complaint against the producer.
“Recently, a Kadapa court issued an NBW against Mr. Ganesh for failure to appear before it despite several summons. Then, the court directed us to arrest him,” the officer said.
