Ex Bigg Boss Kannada contestant, Tsunami Kitty, also known as Pradeep, has fallen into big trouble. The popular celebrity has been arrested by the Bengaluru police in connection with the kidnapping and assault of two men, reports The Indian Express.

According to reports online, Tsunami, along with his four associates have been arrested. However, the main accused, identified as Sunil, is still absconding. The officials at Jnanabharathi police arrested Kitty and his associates based on the complaint filed by Girish, the victim who is a bartender at a restaurant in the city. Girish was allegedly kidnapped by Tsunami and his gang. They tortured him until he gave them the required information.

Sunil, who is still at large, suspected his wife to be having extramarital affair with one Thoushith. His wife and her male friend went frequently to a bar where Girish worked as a bartender. Sunil’s wife, reportedly developed a cordial equation with him and used to call the latter directly for table reservations.

Somehow, Sunil managed to find out Girish’s mobile number from his wife’s phone. Then, he and his gang which included Kitty, abducted him. According to social media reports, Girish was held captive at a farmhouse in Horamavu and was tortured last week, following which he gave information about Thoushith.

“According to Girish, Kitty stabbed Thoushith multiple times and put the gun to his head, threatening to shoot him. After hours of torture, they finally let Girish go, after taking his wallet, mobile phone and driving license,” reported The Hindu.

Girish took his friend’s help to get medical assistance, post which, he filed a police complaint.

The accused have confessed to the crime and have claimed they let Thoushith go, reports The Indian Express.
