Brother's not UG, Diwakar Reddy tells media

JC Prabhakar Reddy, Tadipatri MLA, recently became angry over the issue of paid gunmen with the government authorities. After this incident a week ago, he has not been seen either in Hyderabad or Tadipatri. Meanwhile, the media went to town, alleging Prabhakar Reddy had gone underground. When the subject was broached with his brother, JC Diwakar Reddy, he clarified to newsmen that his brother was on a trip to South Africa. Diwakar Reddy explained that all underground business was the creation of the media. His brother had gone to South Africa and the programme was fixed some time ago. The issue of gunmen cannot be raised now, with the government seriously involved in solving the agitation arising out of the Kapu stir. Neither the Chief Minister nor the Home Minister could be approached with the demand for more gunmen at this point of time, Diwakar Reddy added.
