In a significant turn of events in the ongoing phone tapping case, the Central Government has canceled the passport of former IPS officer Prabhakar Rao. The decision comes amid growing investigations into the alleged illegal surveillance activities.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), which is handling the case, has informed the city police that the process to issue a Red Corner Notice against Rao has already begun. This move signals that authorities are intensifying their efforts to track down the former officer, who is currently believed to be outside the country.
The cancellation of Prabhakar Rao's passport is seen as a major step towards bringing him back to India for questioning. The CBI has been investigating his involvement in the phone tapping scandal, which has sparked widespread concern about privacy violations and misuse of power. Rao, who had served as a senior officer in the Indian Police Service, has been under investigation for his alleged role in the illegal interception of phone calls.
The Red Corner Notice process, which is a request to locate and provisionally arrest an individual pending extradition, further escalates the pressure on Rao. It is expected to involve international law enforcement agencies in locating and apprehending him.
As the investigation progresses, the developments in the case are expected to attract even more attention, as authorities continue to delve deeper into the phone tapping scandal and its far-reaching implications. The cancellation of Rao's passport and the issuance of a Red Corner Notice represent critical steps in the effort to bring justice to those involved in the controversial case.
