SIT not allowed to name Santosh accused in ‘Poachgate’
HYDERABAD: The SIT probing the alleged attempt to poach TRS MLAs suffered a setback as the ACB court rejected its appeal to name BJP general secretary B.L. The SIT sought to name Santosh, Tushar Velapally, Jaggu Swamy alias Jaggu Kottilil of Kerala and Karimnagar-based advocate Busarapu Srinivas as accused, in addition to the trio — Ramachandra Bharati, Kore Nanda Kumar and D.P.S.K.V.N. Dismissing the memo filed by Rajendranagar ACP B. Gangadhar, the SIT investigating officer, the ACB court said: “The law and order police or the SIT, which is not a special police establishment, is not a competent authority to investigate the case. Therefore, on this ground, the request to array the proposed accused cannot be considered.” SIT officials said that they would move the High Court, seeking a revision on the ACB court’s order dismissing the memo.
