Venkat Ramana, Laxman Rao and Venkateshwarlu were arrested on Thursday, Moinabad Inspector G. Pavan Kumar Reddy said. This comes less than a week after a group of 20-25 men allegedly trespassed into the residence of the priest, located adjacent to the Chilkur Balaji temple, and attacked him when he allegedly refused to provide financial support or recruit them to the ‘Rama Rajyam Army’. Soundararajan, the priest’s father and convenor of the Temples’ Protection Movement, issued an official statement where he condemned the attackers, stating that they falsely claimed to be descendants of the Ikshwaku clan and sought to establish a private army to enforce their agenda.
