The hearing in the Kodikatti case has been postponed to May 10, as the ad-hoc judge appointed for the case did not take full charge. The accused, Srinivas, was interrogated via video call from Rajahmundry jail by the NIA court. Chief Minister Jagan had earlier filed a petition seeking exemption from appearance as part of the investigation into the case. An advocate commissioner has been appointed and requested to conduct the inquiry through video conferencing. Despite the postponement, a crucial hearing was expected to take place on the day. The judge who previously heard the case has been transferred to the Kadapa district court, and as a result, an ad-hoc judge was appointed. The case has garnered much attention, and the delay in the proceedings has only added to the anticipation surrounding it.
