K N Anandakumar, the Executive Director of Sathya Sai Trust, was arrested by the Crime Branch following the rejection of his anticipatory bail plea by the Thiruvananthapuram Principal Sessions Court. The Crime Branch team arrived at Anandakumar’s residence in the afternoon and took him into custody. Despite claiming to be undergoing medical treatment, Anandakumar was taken for a medical examination. However, doctors reported that obstacles existed for his immediate arrest.
Anandakumar is accused of masterminding a fraudulent scheme in which he promised to sell a two-wheeler at half the price. According to a complaint filed by A Mohanan, the Secretary of Kannur Seed Society, Anandakumar is one of the seven individuals involved in the scam. The case includes charges of breach of trust and cheating. Anandakumar is the second accused in the case, with Ananthu Krishnan identified as the primary culprit.
