He claimed such statements amounted to intimidation of investigators and could legally be treated as an offence. According to the complaint, attempts were being made to influence not only officials but also potential witnesses in the case.

Venkat said the investigation into the phone tapping case was being conducted strictly as per law. He added that if the accused had committed no wrongdoing, they should cooperate with the SIT and place facts before investigators.

He further alleged that the leaders were making contradictory statements, speaking differently during questioning and later addressing the media in another tone. He demanded the arrest of KTR and Harish Rao to ensure the probe proceeds without interference.

The MLC asserted that accountability was essential and that anyone found guilty in the phone tapping case must face punishment under law. (Maxim News)
