Youtuber Shanmukh Jaswanth Caught By Police For Possessing Cannabis

HYDERABAD: YouTuber and former Bigg Boss Telugu S5 runner-up Shanmukh Jaswanth found himself in legal trouble after being caught with cannabis. The incident unfolded when police visited his residence to apprehend his brother Sampath Vinay following a complaint filed by a woman named Mounika.

During the search, the police discovered 16 grams of ganja in Shanmukh's possession, leading to his arrest alongside his brother.

The complaint against Sampath Vinay stemmed from a romantic relationship he had with a woman from Andhra Pradesh, which lasted for a decade and culminated in engagement plans.

However, the woman alleged that Sampath Vinay deceived her by marrying another woman just 20 days prior, prompting her to file a complaint of cheating against him.

Shanmukh Jaswanth initially gained fame through his work in short films and garnered further recognition with the web series "Software Developer" and "Surya."

This is not the first time Shanmukh has been in the spotlight for legal issues, as he was previously involved in a car accident in Jubilee Hills.
