Tirupati YCP social media president Anil Reddy and his friends are going viral in videos of a young Dalit driver named Pawan Kumar being tortured. Pawan Kumar was kidnapped and locked in a lodge by Abhinay’s followers for not returning the money he had taken. He was beaten with sticks and fiber batons by them.
After the video of the attack on Dalit driver Pawan Kumar went viral, higher authorities have ordered a thorough investigation. The police, who have already reached the spot, believe that the attack took place in the presence of former TTD chairman Bhumana Karunakar Reddy and his son Abhinay Reddy, in their office.
Pawan Kumar’s father Jayaraj has filed a complaint against Bhumana Abhinay and his followers at the Tirupati East police station. However, Pawan Kumar is still in the clutches of the kidnappers. The police are making serious efforts to trace the victim’s whereabouts. The victim’s parents have not been able to reach him for 45 days.
Last night, Bhumana Abhinay and his followers sent videos of torturing Pawan to his father’s phone. Pawan Kumar deplored that he was being tortured for money. At 11 pm on Wednesday, the victim’s father, Jayaraj, informed the police. Pawan Kumar’s family lives in Aravapalli, Pulicherla mandal. Jayaraj expressed his concern that the police should quickly identify his son’s whereabouts and get him justice.
