BRS Working President K.T. Rama Rao criticized Hyderabad Police Commissioner V.C. Sajjanar for allegedly acting as both judge and jury in the phone tapping case involving the former Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao. Sajjanar, leading the Special Investigation Team (SIT), issued a statement after questioning KCR for nearly five hours at his residence in Hyderabad.
Rama Rao expressed concern over Sajjanar’s statement, questioning his impartiality and reminding him that the investigation’s findings need to be proven in court. The SIT questioned KCR in connection with the alleged phone tapping of various individuals during the BRS’ rule, a move criticized by BRS leaders as political vendetta by the Congress government.
The BRS leader accused the government of using the investigation to divert attention from its failures and engage in what he termed as “perverted politics.” Despite not being legally obligated to appear, KCR cooperated with the SIT out of respect for the law and the Constitution. Rama Rao highlighted that the investigation showed no wrongdoing during the BRS government’s tenure and hoped it would dispel politically motivated allegations.
