Big Shock to KCR in Moinabad Farm House Case, HC Dismissed Appeal by SIT

Big Shock | Hyderabad, Feb 6 (Maxim News): The High Court has given a big shock to Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao in the Moinabad Farm House case.

A division bench of the High Court of Telangana headed by Chief Justice Ujjal Bhuyan has dismissed an appeal by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) challenging an order of a special ACB court which had aside a memo to array BJP National General Secretary B.L. Santhosh and three others as accused in the MLAs poaching case.

The ACB special court had last month rejected the memo and the SIT had challenged this in the High Court. :

The ACB special court had observed neither police nor SIT is competent to investigate the offenses relating to the Prevention of Corruption Act and only the Special Police Establishment/Anti-Coirruption Bureau is the competent authority to do so.

Arguing in the High Court, Advocate General B.S Prasad had submitted that the ACB court crossed its limits with the order rejecting the memo.

He submitted to the court that the SIT decided to add Santhosh, Kerala politician Tushar Vellapally, Kerala-based doctor Jaggu Swamy and lawyer B. Srinivas as accused in the case on the basis of evidence found against them during the court of investigation.

Three alleged agents of the BJP were arrested by the Cyberabad police from a farmhouse at Moinabad near Hyderabad on the night of October 26 when they were allegedly trying to lure four MLAs of BRS with offers of huge money. (Maxim News)
