Telugu film actress Hema was today arrested by the Bengaluru police.
She was asked to appear for questioning in the rave party case of last month (May 20) where she notoriously claimed that she was not there when video evidence (ironically, a video that she posted herself) suggested that she was indeed there.
She had been served notices earlier to appear, but she did not, claiming illness. She appeared today, landing up in a burqa to avoid recognition.
The police claimed that she did not co-operate with their questioning, and arrested her.
Hema's blood sample reportedly tested positive for narcotic drugs.
Hema is a popular Telugu film character actress, with a career stretching over 30 years.
