Mangaluru: TV cameraman arrested in connection with Bejai Massage center vandalism
Mangaluru: The Mangaluru Police have taken into custody a TV channel cameraman, Sharan, in connection with the recent vandalism at the Bejai massage center in the city.
Sharan's arrest comes after the police detained Prasad Attavara, founder of the Rama Sena organization, in connection with the same incident. The police are currently interrogating Sharan as part of their investigation.
According to sources, Sharan was present when Rama Sena workers broke into the massage center and vandalized it. Despite being aware of the attack, Sharan allegedly failed to inform the police department.

This is not Sharan's first brush with controversy. In 2009, he was arrested and charged for his involvement in the Mangalore pub vandalism case, which made international headlines. On that occasion, Sharan had accompanied the vandals and filmed the incident.
