'Arguments Of Additional Advocate General Prima Facie Contemptuous' : AP High Court Says In Case Related To Krishnam Raju's Arrest
The Andhra Pradesh High Court has expressed surprise over the "brazenness" and "arrogance" that the Additional Advocate General, representing the Andhra Pradesh Government, displayed while putting forth his arguments in the matter pertaining to YSRCP MP Krishnam Raju's arrest in a Sedition case. "A Lawyer has to be a gentleman first", the Division Bench of Justices Lalitha Kannengati and C Praveen Kumar reminded Additional Advocate General P. Sudhakar Reddy who addressed the Court in an 'intimidating tone' and went as far as casting aspersions on the Bench by saying that it has a 'special interest' in the matter.

The Additional Advocate General could have been sober and used better words during the court proceedings", Justice Praveen Kumar said in the order.
