Gayathri Raghuram Booked in Drunk Driving: Who became a household name soon after her stint in the reality TV show Bigg Boss Tamil fame Actress Gayathri Raghuram Booked for Drunk Driving on Saturday night by Abhiramapuram Traffic Control Police. The actress was returning home from a party that was organized at a star hotel in MRC Nagar when her car was stopped by the Traffic Police at Sathya Studio around midnight. When the actor’s breath analyzer test proved to be positive, a case under Section 185 (driving by a drunken person or by a person under the influence of drugs) of the Motor Vehicles Act was filed.
Speaking to thenewsminute, a police officer who was present when the incident transpired says that Gayathri was extremely cooperative throughout the ordeal. “When the crowd began gathering she requested that we drop her closer to her house and then take her documents, which we did. Gayathri Raghuram can collect her documents after paying a fine of Rs 3500 at any mobile court,” he said.
The police officer also added that it was indeed unfortunate that certain local dailies have blown the incident out of proportion. “A few of them have reported that she argued with the police, detailing her life history, which is, of course, unnecessary,” he said.
