AP CM Chandrababu is in trouble again. Yes the note for vote case has taken an interesting turn with ACB court asking for further tests into the voice of Chandrababu.
The ACB DG AK Khan has been directed by the ACB court to look into the voice tests and authenticate on the voice of Chandrababu. The court has also directed that this process should be completed by September 29.
There were allegations that the issue and case were dropped by the TRS Government. But it was not right. The matter was pending investigation. With court directions lets hope it would be resolved by Spetember 29.
It may be recalled that TNews, has aired an audio recording which is proof that the cash-for-vote case in which a legislator belonging to the Telugu Desam Party or TDP was arrested , had the full backing of Naidu, the party president.
TDP legislator Revanth Reddy was arrested by the Anti-Corruption Bureau after he was allegedly caught red-handed offering a bribe to nominated legislator Elvis Stephenson. The deal was reportedly for Rs. five crore, of which Rs. 50 lakh in cash was seized by officials.
The bribe was allegedly in exchange for the support of the nominated legislator Elvis Stephenson in Telangana legislative council elections to be held the next day.
In audio-video tapes released by the Anti-Corruption Bureau, TDP legislator Revanth Reddy repeatedly refers to his “boss” and also refers to Mr Naidu by name and calling him ‘Babu Garu’, saying he has been authorised directly by the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister.
The Telangana Home Minister Nayani Narsimha Redy had claimed that there were phone recordings to prove that Mr Naidu was directly involved. He claimed that Naidu had also spoken to some other Telangana Rashtra Samithi or TRS legislators.
