Malayalam actor Shine Tom Chacko, who had fled from a Kochi hotel during a raid by the Narcotics Department, has now been arrested by the Kochi police. The actor, who had been evading authorities for three days, appeared at the North Ernakulam police station in Kerala on Saturday morning. He was interrogated for about four hours in connection with a drug case that surfaced following a complaint by actress Vincy Aloshious, who alleged that a co-star misbehaved with her on a film set.
Reportedly, he has been charged under Sections 27 (consumption of any narcotic drug or psychotropic substance) and 29 (abetment and criminal conspiracy) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act.
