Kajal Aggarwal distances herself from manager following his arrest in drugs case

Kajal Aggarwal has expressed shock over the arrest of her manager Puttkar Ronson Joseph alias Johny Joseph alias Ronny in connection with the drug racket in which many high-profile celebrities of Tollywood are alleged to have been involved. The actress has stated that she will not support anything that is harmful to the society.

"I am absolutely shocked and appalled about this whole incident with Ronnie. I'm in zero support of this and any behaviour that is detrimental to the hygiene of our society. Having said that, just because I care for people who run errands for me does not imply that I can control their personal lives/choices," Kajal Aggarwal said in a press release.

She added, "My parents have always managed my career and with everyone else from my industry, I share an extremely professional/cordial relationship. I'm unaware of their whereabouts and activities once their professional duties with regard to me are completed."

The SIT team, which is investigating the ongoing drug racket in Hyderabad, has arrested Kajal Aggarwal's manager Joseph and reportedly seized a large amount of Marijuana from his residence.

The officials, who conducted the raids, held a press conference on Monday and declined to comment whether he was an abuser or a peddler.

The excise department has recently served notices to 12 celebrities from the Telugu film industry. They started interrogating celebs from July 19 and also grilled people like Puri Jagannath, Shyam K Naidu, Subbaraju and Navdeep in the last four days. Charmme Kaur will be questioned by them today (July 25). However, Joseph's revelations are likely to bring in more celebrities under the SIT scanner.
