A minor clash between TDP workers and police personnel
There was tremendous drama in Nandyala when a team of police officials arrived in the area early on Saturday morning to take the TDP leader into custody. Meanwhile, there was also a minor clash between TDP workers and police personnel. According to the party, the police will take Chandrababu to Vijayawada by flight from Oravkal Airport. “We have evidence. We have given it to the High Court. The remand report has all the material. We will give the remand report before taking him to Vijayawada,” CID officials could be heard saying during the scuffle.”
Chandrababu said to the police – at least show the evidence of the allegations…?
However, Chandrababu strongly objected to the arrest as it was initiated without showing ‘proof of the charges’. Chandrababu said that he would cooperate with the law only when the evidence is produced. Chandrababu Naidu’s lawyer said, “Before arresting Naidu, the CID took him for a medical examination, where hypertension and diabetes were reported. We are approaching the High Court for bail.”
