Chennai: R. Siva Kumar, 41, part owner of Saravana Bhavan, a chain of south Indian restaurants, was arrested late on Saturday for allegedly trying to obtain US visas for employees using forged documents, the police said.
"The arrest was made following a complaint from the US Consulate whose officials discovered forged documents," said an official from the crime investigation department.
The complaints had led to arrest of two actresses - Flora Saini and Sri Latha - on similar charges on March 11.
Kumar's father Rajagopal is out on bail in a case involving an employee's murder.
