Family members and activists accuse Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy of obstructing the trial in the 'Kodi Kathi' case.
Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy is obstructing the trial in the ‘Kodi Kathi’ case, the family members of the main accused, Janupalli Srinivasa Rao, and local social activists alleged on Friday.
The family members of Srinivasa Rao met Governor S. Abdul Nazeer at Raj Bhavan and submitted a representation to him in this regard on Friday.
The Kodi Kathi case pertains to the attack on Mr. Jagan at the Visakhapatnam airport back in 2018 when he was Leader of the Opposition. Srinivasa Rao allegedly attacked Mr. Jagan with a knife used in rooster fights (called Kodi Kathi in Telugu).
“Srinivasa Rao has been languishing in jail for the last five years as Mr. Jagan is not attending court citing various reasons. We are undergoing a lot of suffering due to this,” his mother J. Savitri said. She was accompanied by her other son Subba Raju, TDP leader Varla Ramaiah, JSP leader P. Mahesh, and other activists.
Ms. Savitri appealed to the Governor to intervene into the matter and ensure that her son gets bail in the case.
