Singer Park Hyo Shin once again caught up with the police and faces a lawsuit for alleged fraud
Park Hyo Shin
has time and time again been caught up in controversies in the past couple of years. The latest that is hitting the headlines hard is the lawsuit that has been filed against the singer for alleged fraudulent activities.
Fraud Lawsuit Filed Against Hyo Shin
Park
Hyo Shin
has come under the microscope once again as his former agency has filed a lawsuit against him for alleged fraud. He has been served a lawsuit based on violating the
Specific Economic Crimes Aggravated Punishment Act
(fraud) and for causing hindrance in business.
As reported by news outlet SPOTV News, former reps of his agency as well as shareholders from the company all filed the lawsuit together against the singer on April 7. The lawsuit was filed in
Yongsan Police Station
in Seoul, where the plaintiffs made the claim that Hyo Shin lied to them about the company's shares.
New shares of his former agency were given to Hyo Shin as well as other shareholders of the firm. The plaintiffs stated that Hyo Shin made them believe that there was a 'nominee trust agreement' and that he had put a number of shares under their name, even though that was not the case.
The plaintiffs also claim that during a recent
general shareholders meeting
of the company, Hyo Shin appointed employees loyal to him as directors allegedly and also exercised voting rights over said shares. This all happened in March 2022. They have also alleged that he did a similar thing in August 2023 and also fired the former CEO of the company.
However, as quoted from Allkpop, the singer's representative has fully denied all allegations during a public media interview and has shared that he is undergoing a civil lawsuit and hasn't been sued for fraud by anyone.
Previous lawsuits against the singer
As previously shared, Hyo Shin has undergone other lawsuits as well. His first lawsuit came in 2006 when his former agency alleged that the singer had ended their contract without notice and illegally. The next lawsuit occurred in 2008 with another former agency for a similar case. This lawsuit has become the singer's fifth in total.
Currently the singer is active in the music industry and is also all set to perform in the 10th-anniversary production of '
Phantom
'.

Two dead, 32 injured after monkeys break electric wire triggering stampede at Avsaneshwar temple in UP's Barabanki temple
Two people were killed and 32 injured in a stampede at a temple here after a live electric wire, broken by monkeys, fell onto a tin shed early on Monday, officials said. The incident occurred at the Avsaneshwar temple in the Haidergarh area during the holy month of Shravan on Monday when devotees had gathered at the temple for 'jalabhishek' (offering water as a ritual). The electric current spread through the tin shed as the wire fell, triggering panic and a stampede in the temple premises. Prashant (22) from the Mubarakpura village under the Lonikatra police station area and another 30-year-old devotee succumbed to their injuries while undergoing treatment at the Trivediganj Community Health Centre (CHC), officials said. This comes a day after eight people were killed in a stampede that broke out during a rush of pilgrims along a stair route leading to the Mansa Devi temple on a hilltop in Haridwar. Rumours of an electric current where the stairs begin triggered panic among people, leading to the stampede, according to the police. A total of 10 injured persons were brought to Trivediganj CHC, of whom five were referred to higher medical centres due to their critical condition. Meanwhile, 26 injured devotees are being treated at the Haidergarh CHC, and one of them has been referred for advanced care due to serious injuries. Following the incident, there was chaos in the temple and surrounding areas. District and police officials reached the spot and are working to manage the situation. An investigation is underway to determine the exact cause of the incident. Barabanki District Magistrate Shashank Tripathi said that during the 'jalabhishek' ritual, monkeys had damaged an electric wire, which caused current to flow through three tin sheds in the temple complex. The resulting panic led to a stampede in which two people lost their lives and more than two dozens were injured, he added. Devotees later resumed their worship at the temple. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath expressed 'deep sorrow' over the loss of lives and extended his condolences to the bereaved families. 'He has directed the district administration officials to expedite the proper treatment of the injured and relief operations,' Adityanath's office posted on X in Hindi. 'He has prayed to Lord Mahadev, the supreme deity, to grant salvation to the departed souls and a speedy recovery to the injured,' it added.

Prabhakar Boré Gowda makes Kollywood debut with ‘Accused'
Bengaluru: Another promising talent from the Kannada industry is making waves beyond state borders. Prabhakar Boré Gowda, a well-known face in Kannada television, has officially stepped into the Tamil film industry (Kollywood) with the upcoming action-thriller 'Accused', where he plays the lead antagonist. Directed by Prabhu Srinivas, 'Accused' features an ensemble cast including Udhay, Yogi Babu, Ajmal, and Janvika. Prabhakar, who plays the film's main villain, is confident that this project will mark a turning point in his career. The film is set for a worldwide release on August 1, and its trailer has already received widespread appreciation, building strong buzz around his Tamil debut. Hailing from Mandya, Prabhakar has been a part of the entertainment industry for over two decades, beginning his journey with a passion for theatre after completing his engineering in Bengaluru. He underwent theatre training and acted in numerous stage productions before becoming a household name on the Kannada small screen, appearing in over 5,000 episodes. Some of his most popular Kannada serials include Kapicheste, Kunkuma Bhagya, Soundarya Lahari, Mangalya, and the long-running Punyakoti, which alone had over 2,000 episodes. His role in the show Baduku was a breakthrough, running successfully for six years, while his performance in Mane Ondu Mooru Bagilu as a negative character was also well received. Initially cast in a lead role by A.G. Sheshadri for 'Punyakoti', Prabhakar later became a go-to actor for lead and character roles in multiple serials. Despite his busy schedule in TV and a parallel business venture, he felt drawn toward cinema and gradually transitioned to films. His film debut came with a negative role in Kariya 2. He then shared screen space with the late Sanchari Vijay in Aham Brahmasmi and featured in several other films, mostly in villainous roles — a genre he continues to enjoy. His recent performance as an antagonist in Rudra Garuda Purana was widely appreciated. Now, with 'Accused', Prabhakar's career enters a new phase. The film is content-driven and action-packed, and Prabhakar feels privileged to have worked with experienced technicians and senior artists. The positive feedback from industry insiders and Tamil directors who have seen his performance in the trailer has already opened up fresh opportunities in Kollywood. With a strong foundation in theatre, a proven track record in television, and now a promising start in Tamil cinema, Prabhakar Boré Gowda is hoping to make a lasting mark in the South Indian film industry — joining the growing list of Kannada actors expanding their horizons across languages.
