Anantha Uday Bhaskar, a member of the YSRCP's Legislative Council (MLC) in Andhra Pradesh, was suspended from the party on Wednesday following his arrest for the killing of his former driver. The MLC has been suspended on the orders of Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, according to a party statement. The expulsion came after police detained Anantha Babu, the MLC's nickname. On the same day, he appeared in front of a magistrate in Kakinada, who sentenced him to 14 days in judicial custody. In his testimony, the politician admitted to authorities that he was responsible for the death of driver Subrahmanyam.
