Vijayawada: Former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy and two senior IPS officers are among five people booked in an attempt to murder case following a complaint by a TDP MLA. Former CID chief PV Sunil Kumar and former Intelligence chief PSR Anjaneyulu are the two IPS officers who have been booked.
In his complaint, Undi MLA K Raghurama Krishna Raju alleged that he was arrested in 2021 by the CID in Hyderabad. He accused Jagan and other officials of "plotting a criminal conspiracy" against him.
Raju, who was previously with the YSR Congress, alleged that after his arrest he was not produced before the local magistrate. He also claimed that the CID did not have a transit arrest warrant, and he was shifted to the agency's office in Guntur.
Raju said that Sunil Kumar, Anjaneyulu and other police officers thrashed him and he wasn't even allowed to take his medicines. He also alleged that some officers "sat on his chest" in an attempt to kill him. The TDP MLA said he was then shifted to a government hospital where he was not given proper treatment by former Guntur Government General Hospital superintendent Dr Prabhavathi. He also alleged that Sunil Kumar threatened to kill him if he criticised the then chief minister Jagan Mohan Reddy.
