Varanasi (UP): Bhojpuri singer Samar Singh has been sent to 14 days of judicial custody in connection with the suicide of model-turned-actor Akanksha Dubey, media reports said.

Samar Singh, who is the main accused in the case, was recently arrested in connection with the Akanksha Dubey suicide case.

Akanksha Dubey, 25, was found dead in a Varanasi hotel room on March 26. She was there for the shoot of her film, Laik Hoon Main Nalaik Nahin.
