Akun the boss has cancelled his leave and will continue the investigation on drugs case and will take it to the logical end.
There was this News in the media and social media that there is huge pressure on Sabharwal the top regarding the Tollywoods drugs case and that he is being sent on a leave for a few days in order to dilute the investigation. His wife Smitha Sabharwal is with the CM KCR as special secretary it may be noted.
But the reality is that the CM KCR has given full powers to the police to expose and handle the culprits in this case so that innocent students lives will not be in danger. Akun is a straight forward man and he cannot come under the influence of Cine people or politicians.
When asked, Sabharwal denied having any pressure, and he clarified that he has full support from the govt. ‘My leave was sanctioned even before this case surfaced up and that I am going to my native place because of my mother’s death two months ago,’ he revealed.
‘The probe will continue even in my absence. Each celebrity has been given one particular date to appear before SIT for questioning. If they neglect the notice, we will proceed legally,’ he added.
Informing that a total of 13 people related to drug racket have been arrested so far, he asked media not to sensationalize this issue and that they must report the truth only.
Akun Sabharwal, the Director of Drugs Control Administration, who is heading the Special Investigation Team (SIT) that is probing the drug scandal that has rocked Tollywood, interacted with media .
Sabharwal has made it clear that neither he nor any member of the SIT has officially revealed the names of the Telugu film celebs that are circulating in media in connection to drugs case. He however refused to comment when asked if the circulating names were present in the original list or not. ‘Revealing the names is unlawful,’ he said.
He further said that notices have been served to people from Tollywood, and that they have been summoned for only questioning. He denied the speculations of planning to arrest any Tollywood celebs.
The notices were sent based on the evidences gathered by SIT and no one has been declared guilty as of now. ‘Notices meant only for questioning, and I request all the celebs to cooperate in the investigation’ he reiterated.
