Asin's aide goes 'missing'

Mar 19, 2009 IANS

Chennai, March 19 (IANS) Family of a man employed with Bollywood actor Asin has alleged that he has gone 'missing' because of abuse by the actor. Asin has denied the charge.

"The concerned person N. Muthu Kumar has left my employment and we informed the police immediately. Other accusations are false," the actress said in a statement Thursday.

According to S. Vadivu, her son Kumar was employed with Asin for four years.

"I am worried as Asin's father Joseph said that Kumar was sacked after he joined the Mumbai underworld several days ago. While my search in Mumbai was fruitless, the facts do not add up because Kumar told me over phone sometime back that he was likely to quit after the actress abused him over his physical handicap," Vadivu told IANS.

Greater Chennai Police Commissioner Sangram Jangid said: "The issue is being blown out of proportion by a section of the press. The complaint has been forwarded to the appropriate authorities and there is nothing more to it."

Asin is currently shooting for "London Dreams" as the female lead with Salman Khan and Ajay Devgan.
