Revanth Reddy, arrested in 2015 for allegedly bribing an MLA during legislative council elections, faced Supreme Court scrutiny. The court advised against his interference in the prosecution while rejecting a trial transfer request. Concerns emerged regarding Reddy’s influence as Chief Minister, prompting potential appointment of an independent prosecutor for impartiality.
The CBI arrested V. Chalapathi Rao, a proclaimed offender in a bank fraud case, after 20 years of absconding. Rao had evaded arrest by changing his identity and locations, living under disguises and obtaining multiple Aadhaar cards. He fled to several places in India and was finally apprehended in Tamil Nadu.
