Yesterday, Ofcom, the broadcasting regulator, received 290 complaints involving Indian student Sree Dasari (25) and British window Marcus Akin (35).
Last week, Akin reportedly mocked Dasari by imitating his Indian accent.
Akin was given a formal warning. Viewers evicted Sree the following day.
A spokesman said, "Big Brother intervened and took appropriate action."
"Threatening language and behaviour is not acceptable in the Big Brother house," he added.
