AP CID seeks Court approval to attach Chandrababu' residence in Undavalli

Vijayawada: The Andhra Pradesh Crime Investigation Department (CID) has filed an application in the ACB court located in Vijayawada, seeking permission to attach the residence of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chief Chandrababu Naidu. The property in question is situated near Karakattu Road in Undavalli, Guntur district. During the hearing on Tuesday, Special Public Prosecutor YN Vivekananda presented the submissions on behalf of the AP CID. Remarkably, the CID requested that interim orders for attachment be issued without prior notice to the respondents. In response, the judicial officer adjourned the hearing to Wednesday to thoroughly examine the relevant legal provisions and consider further arguments. The case against several individuals for alleged corruption in manipulating the capital city's master plan and the alignment of the Inner Ring Road was registered by the CID in last year. In a significant development, on May 12, the Ministry of Home Affairs issued an order granting permission to the CID to attach the house on Karakattu Road, which is owned by businessman Lingamaneni Ramesh and currently occupied by TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu.
