Police arrested Rana from Bagbazzar on Thursday from a restaurant.
His custody has been prolonged for six more days. Secret police documents claim that Saroj Thapa rechristened himself into Rose Rana, the filmmaker, after making it big through nude bars.
As a film-maker, he not only produced films but also bullied actors, rivals and theatre-owners for his vested interests.
Complaints of actor Nikhil Upreti and filmmaker Suresh Darpan Pokhrel lodged at the Metropolitan Police claim that Rana often threatened them at home and the shooting spots.
The 30-year old from Pyuthan has under his belt films with stories and the names that would put many Bollywood adult filmmakers to shame.
Kumar Ghainte, a self-anointed gangster, who is now in judicial custody with Rana, has confessed to have abetted him on several of his criminal escapades.
