According to a report in Hindustan Times, the actor was detained on January 18, two days after the horrific attack. Akash Kailash was arrested from Durg railway station when he was going from Mumbai to his ancestral home in Chhattisgarh.
Received wrong alert from Mumbai Police
The man told that on January 17, he was going to Bilaspur by Dnyaneshwar Express to meet his ailing grandmother and fiancee, but Railway Protection Force (RPF) officials detained him at the station. This happened due to a false alert given to the RPF by the Mumbai Police, which said that Akash Kailash Kanojia was behind the failed theft attempt at the actor’s Mumbai house.
