cash-for-vote case
Hyderabad: In the wake of an Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) court’s directive to Telangana ACB to probe the allegations against Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chief N Chandrababu Naidu in the cash-for-vote case, Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) MP from Nizamabad K Kavitha said the investigations would go as per procedure and law.
“In Chandrababu Naidu's issue, the ACB court has been informed by the anti-graft agency that they are already investigating the case and will certainly follow whatever procedure needs to be followed,” Kavitha told reporters here on Thursday. “In our country, the law is supreme and is above all. If anybody is a culprit, they will certainly be brought to justice. In this case, investigation is on.
I cannot comment much on this. But, certainly the ACB has done a good job by exposing it (cash-for-vote scam) and the whole country was in shock when this incident happened. Investigations will go as per the procedure and law,” she said. Based on a private complaint filed by YSR Congress Party MLA Alla Ramakrishna Reddy in which he accused Naidu as the main conspirator in the case, the ACB court on August 29 directed the ACB to probe the allegations levelled against the AP Chief Minister and submit a report on its investigations before September 29.
The ACB on Wednesday informed the court that it was already investigating the case and there was no need to issue a separate FIR. In May last year, Telangana nominated MLA Elvis Stephenson had lodged a complaint with ACB alleging that he was offered Rs 5 crore by TDP MLA A Revanth Reddy to vote in favour of a Telugu Desam MLC nominee in Telangana Legislative Council polls held on June 1. Stephenson represents Anglo-Indian community in Telangana Legislative Assembly. A case was subsequently registered on May 31.
