ACB quizzes TDP MLA in cash-for-vote scam

Hyderabad, June 6: The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) of Telangana on Saturday began interrogating Telugu Desam Party (TDP) MLA A. Revanth Reddy and two others in cash-for-vote scam. ACB sleuths took custody of the legislator and his two aides Sebastian Harry and Uday Simha from Cherlapally Jail. While Revanth Reddy was taken to an undisclosed location for questioning, two others were brought to ACB headquarters. The MLA's lawyers staged a protest at ACB office, demanding information about his whereabouts. Pramod Reddy, one of the lawyers, alleged that ACB's action was violation of court orders. The questioning assumed significance in the light of a statement by Telangana Home Minister N. Narasimha Reddy that there is a proof that TDP president and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu spoke to the nominated MLA and some other legislators of Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) over phone.
