Overview

  • Sanathnagar police arrested the accused manager, identified as Santosh Goud, and produced him in court where he was remanded following the complaint.
  • The complaint was filed by a woman pilot who said she joined the Cult Gym centre in Sanathnagar a few weeks earlier and was harassed during training sessions.
