Kochi: Maradu police recorded the arrest of actor Sreenath Bhasi in the case of allegedly misbehaving with a journalist. Meanwhile, he is likely to be summoned by the producers’ association in view of the complaint lodged by the journalist.

He was asked to appear in Maradu police station at 10 am on Monday. However, he requested more time to turn up at the station. He arrived at the station only after noon with his friends. The interrogation of the actor is proceeding.
