The Andhra Pradesh High Court has granted temporary relief to YSRCP MP P. Mithun Reddy in connection with the ongoing CID investigation into the alleged liquor scam during the YCP regime. The court has ordered that Mithun Reddy should not be arrested until April 3, providing him interim protection.
The CID registered a case following complaints about irregularities in liquor businesses under the YCP government. Mithun Reddy was included as an accused, prompting him to seek anticipatory bail from the AP High Court. After reviewing his petition, the court issued a directive preventing his arrest until further hearings.
Meanwhile, the liquor scam issue has taken center stage in national politics, with TDP MP Srikrishna Devaraya raising the matter in the Lok Sabha. The discussion gained further momentum when Union Home Minister Amit Shah summoned Devaraya to his office in Parliament to review the details of the case personally.
These developments have heightened political tensions in Andhra Pradesh, as the case is expected to have wider legal and political ramifications in the coming days.
