What is the arrest about?
Kitty is the president of Sudeep Charitable Trust. As per reports, there had been some misunderstanding between Kitty and Sudeep related to the trust. Kitty had made allegations of being cheated of 2 crores rupees by Sudeep after Kitty invested in the trust. In spite of the director’s arrest, the police are wary that more people are involved, and say that an investigation is underway.

Other theories
The threat letter also came after Sudeep announced his support for Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) by joining the party and promising to campaign with Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai. The letter may have to do something with that.
