The police are taking strict action against social media influencers who promote betting apps for money. Recently, they issued notices to 11 influencers, including Pareshan Boys Imran and Harsha Sai. Reports suggest that these two have fled to Dubai to avoid arrest. The police have now launched a search to track them down.
In addition to this, the Punjagutta police have summoned six more influencers, including actress Shyamala and Ritu Chaudhary. They have been asked to appear for questioning on March 20. The police are focusing on collecting evidence against celebrities and influencers who promote these illegal betting apps.
On March 18, influencers Tasty Teja and Vishnupriya were called in for questioning. While Vishnupriya refused to cooperate, Tasty Teja attended the session and provided information. Given the seriousness of the case, the police have now handed it over to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for further investigation. The authorities are determined to crack down on illegal betting promotions and continue their efforts to bring those involved to justice.
