Gundama Raju Kalyan Kumar, who worked as officer on special duty to Talasani Srinivas Yadav, when the latter was Minister in BRS government, filed a criminal petition in High Court seeking anticipatory bail.
Mr. Kumar sought bail apprehending that he would be subjected to third degree methods if the police arrest him in a criminal case registered by Nampally police of Hyderabad. The case was registered based on a complaint lodged by M. Laxmaiah, watchman at the office of the Director of Animal Husbandry in Shantinagar of Masab Tank in the city.
As per the First Information Report issued by the Nampally police, the watchman around 7.30 p.m. on December 8 noticed that OSD Kalyan Kumar’s office room lock was open.
