Renowned Kannada actress Abhinaya has been sentenced to 2 years in jail. Veteran actress Abhinaya was found guilty of harassing her elder brother's wife for dowry and the High Court sentenced her to two years in jail.
A case was registered against actress Abhinaya in 2002 for dowry harassment of Abhinaya Anna's wife Lakshmidevi in Bangalore's Chandralayout. A case was registered against five people including Abhinaya.
Srinivas, Ramakrishna, died in the case. The trial court sentenced Abhinaya, Chaluvraj and Jayamma to two years in jail.
After the announcement of the verdict, Lakshmidevi said that within six months of her marriage, she started harassing the dowry. Even after talking to his family many times and holding Nyaya Panchayat to no avail. Abhinaya also used to torture.
