In a court hearing, the High Court concluded arguments regarding the anticipatory bail petitions filed by YSRCP leader Karumuri Venkata Nageswara Rao, his son Sunil, and daughter-in-law Keerthi. The legal proceedings stem from a case registered by the CID Special Investigation Team (SIT) over allegations of irregularities in liquor transportation.
The court has scheduled the delivery of its verdict for March 18, following arguments presented by both sides. Senior advocate Ponnavolu Sudhakar Reddy, representing the petitioners, argued that Karumuri Venkata Nageswara Rao and his family members have been unfairly implicated due to political reasons.
During the hearing, it was revealed that during the YSRCP’s tenure, liquor shops were operated under government supervision. The contract for transporting liquor bottles from supplier to shops was awarded to Delhi-based Sigma Supply Chain Solutions.
The petitioners have maintained their innocence in the case registered by the SIT, which is investigating alleged irregularities in the transportation of liquor bottles. The decision on whether they will be granted anticipatory bail will be delivered later this month.
