The AP High Court has given key orders in the case of making obscene comments against TDP MLA Prashanthi Reddy. In this case, the bench gave an unexpected shock to YSRCP leader Nallapureddy Prasannakumar Reddy, who made obscene comments against the MLA. It hs rejected anticipatory bail.
It has ordered the police to issue notices against him under 35(3) of the BNS and investigate him. It has made it clear that the guidelines given by the Supreme Court in the Arnesh Kumar case must be followed.
Nallapureddy’s lawyer Manohar Reddy brought to the court’s attention that all the sections registered by the police against the petitioner are sections punishable by up to seven years. He said that these sections are also not applicable to him.
The government lawyer argued that Prasannakumar Reddy made obscene comments against Prashanthi Reddy on the first day and repeated them again on the second day. The bench, after hearing the arguments of both the parties, ordered that Prasanna Kumar Reddy be summoned and questioned under Section 35(3) of the BNS as all the sections filed by the police were punishable with a maximum of seven years.
Meanwhile, Home Minister Anitha criticized YSRCP chief Jaganmohan Reddy for not behaving like a humane person. “Prasanna Kumar Reddy learned from Jagan. No one except Jagan is defending his style. Jagan has a bad history of spreading false propaganda about his own sister, who was born through blood sharing”, she said.
She deplored that Jagan is visiting rowdy sheeters and the families of those who committed suicide after losing money on a betting app. During Jagan’s tour, she alleged that he trampled on talakaya once and then on mangoes again. She said that people should also think, isn’t it wrong to say that we will kill each other?
“MLA Prashanthi Reddy won with a majority of 50,000. Even the courts have rejected Prasanna Kumar Reddy’s comments on the female leader. We are taking legal action against him,” the Home Minister added.
