Setback for YSRCP MP Mithun Reddy in Liquor Scam Case
High Court dismisses Mithun Reddy's anticipatory bail plea
MP approaches AP High Court fearing possible arrest
Case linked to alleged irregularities in liquor policy implementation
In a significant setback for YSRCP MP Mithun Reddy, the Andhra Pradesh High Court has dismissed his anticipatory bail petition concerning the ongoing investigation into the liquor scam case. The MP approached the court seeking protection from potential arrest amid allegations of irregularities linked to the implementation of liquor policies.
Mithun Reddy, apprehending arrest by the investigating agencies, had filed the anticipatory bail petition which was rejected by the High Court. Sources indicate that the case involves alleged manipulation of liquor licensing and distribution processes, causing revenue losses to the state exchequer.
With the High Court’s dismissal of the petition, the possibility of Mithun Reddy facing arrest looms larger. The court’s decision is expected to escalate the legal troubles for the MP, as the investigating agencies continue their probe into the alleged scam.
