Telangana BJP has expressed disappointment over Majlis leader Akbaruddin Owaisi being “let off scot-free” for his hate speech and said this was another example of collusion between the MIM and TRS.
“While we do not want to comment on the judgment, the fact that the TRS government had failed to produce concrete evidence about Akbaruddin Owaisi’s slanderous public speech is shocking,” said TS party president Bandi Sanjay Kumar on Wednesday.
He pointed out that a similar case filed in 2009 against the Majlis leader in Nizamabad, when he made objectionable comments, got watered down during the then Congress Government and demanded the State Government to go for an appeal in the higher court contesting the acquittal.
