Former Minister and popular Telugu Desam Party leader Ayyanna Patrudu and his son Rajesh were arrested from their residence in the early hours of Thursday for allegedly forging documents in the High Court regarding the construction of a wall in their house.
Earlier the wall was demolished by YSRC government in the name of illegal construction.
The father and son were arrested by the Crime Investigation Department (CID) Police earlier today and moved to the Eluru district.
It is reported that the CID had registered a case on the complaint of the irrigation officials that they had submitted a fake certificate to the High Court during the demolition of the house wall.
It was charged that the duo had occupied the Ravanapalli irrigation canal and constructed the house. Ayyanna’s wife Padmavati criticized the government for arresting Ayyanna Patrudu and Rajesh without prior information.
She demanded from the government to take full responsibility for Ayyanna Patrudu’s life. The Telugu Desam Party activists have called Narsipatnam bandh in protest against Ayyanna’s arrest.
