Metallica concert fiasco: Judicial custody for four

Metallica concert fiasco: Judicial custody for four
Gurgaon: Four officials of an event management company organising last week's cancelled Metallica concert were on Thursday sent to judicial custody for 14 days by a local court, police said.

Rajesh Kumar, the general manager of DNA Entertainment Networks, and his colleagues Umesh Chinara, Ashok Singh and Savio Faleiro were arrested October 29 on charges of cheating and breach of trust and sent to police custody for six days.

The lawyer for the accused persons said he will move their bail plea on Friday.

The much-anticipated concert by the American hard rock band Metallica, scheduled for October 28, was cancelled at the last minute.

Over 25,000 fans had gathered at the Leisure Valley Park in Sector 29 to watch the concert, the opener for the 'F1 Rocks' series of performances for the Formula One race at Greater Noida.

Upset over the cancellation, the fans vandalised the stage, damaged expensive equipment and broke barricades.
