Amaravati: Prabhakar's arrest political, alleges Deepak Reddy
TDP MLC G Deepak Reddy on Saturday flayed the YS Jagan Mohan Reddy government for filing false cases and arresting TDP leaders who were not surrendering to their inducements and threats to join the ruling YSRCP
Amaravati: TDP MLC G Deepak Reddy on Saturday flayed the YS Jagan Mohan Reddy government for filing false cases and arresting TDP leaders who were not surrendering to their inducements and threats to join the ruling YSRCP.
He termed the arrest of former MLA JC Prabhakar Reddy and his son Asmith Reddy as politically motivated and merely based on false and illegal cases.
Prabhakar Reddy cannot be implicated in these cases since he purchased the 26 vehicles from a Chennai-based dealer while their registrations were done by a mediator in Nagaland State.
Addressing a press conference here, Deepak Reddy said the State has no jurisdiction in the case right now as Prabhakar Reddy's company has already filed a case against the mediators in Nagaland High Court where the case is still pending. The state government has not filed any cases against Chennai dealer or Nagaland mediator but was targeting Prabhakar Reddy out of political vendetta. Since January this year, nearly 24 cases were filed against Prabhakar Reddy and he got bail in 23 cases.
The TDP MLC said that the present arrest of Prabhakar Reddy was made in regard to 24th false case which is coming up for hearing next Monday but the officials did not wait till then. No case was registered against Asmith Reddy but he was also arrested.
The arrests were made only after the JC family refused to surrender and join the YSRCP.
Unfortunately, the officials were violating all rules and regulations to get false confessional statements from different persons to implicate the TDP leaders, Deepak Reddy said.
