Rajasekhar and Jeevitha sentenced to one-year in jail
It is a major setback for actor couple Rajasekhar and Jeevitha. Rajasekhar and his wife, Jeevitha, were sentenced to one year in prison by a Nampally court for falsely alleging irregularities at Chiranjeevi Blood Bank.
This defamation case was filed in 2011 by Allu Aravind. The magistrate sentenced Jeevitha and Rajasekhar to one year in prison and fined them Rs 5 lakh for their defamatory remarks made on July 18.
They claimed in 2011 that the Chiranjeevi Blood Bank was operating illegally and that blood was being sold on the black market. Chiranjeevi’s brother-in-law, Allu Aravind, filed a defamation suit against them.
Rajasekhar and Jeevitha, on the other hand, have the option of appealing to a higher court and seeking bail.
