Andhra CID arrests TDP leaders in chit fund company case

[ad_1]
Amaravati: The Andhra Pradesh Police’s CID on Sunday arrested former Telugu Desam Party (TDP) MLC Adireddy Appa Rao and his son and TDP state Executive Secretary Adireddy Srinivasa Rao in a case relating to financial irregularities in a chit fund company.
The CID sleuths arrested the father-son duo from their residence in Rajamahendravaram and shifted them to the CID office. Appa Rao, who is the husband of TDP Rajahmundry MLA Adireddy Bhavani and their son Srinivasa Rao are said to be directors in Jagajjanani Chit Funds Private Ltd.
The main opposition party condemned the arrests. Several party leaders and workers reached the party office in Rajamahendravaram and voiced their protest over the arrests.

Meanwhile, TDP national President and former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu spoke to Bhavani over phone and expressed solidarity with her.
Naidu said that the political harassment and vendetta by the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) government is increasing by the day. He lamented that there is no change in the ruling party’s behavior.
The TDP President said the YSRCP government believed only in illegal cases and illegal arrests. He said the arrest of Appa Rao and Srinivasa Rao is another example of the YSRCP government’s politics of vendetta.
Naidu alleged that Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy does not want anybody to do business in the state. “Is CID a government investigation agency or YSRCP threatening agency,” he asked
The TDP chief said despite courts reprimanding the government on many occasions, the Jagan government has not mend its ways.

TDP’s Andhra Pradesh unit chief Atchanaidu said the party was not afraid of illegal cases and arrests. He alleged that there is no difference between YSRCP ‘goondas’ and CID officials. The former minister said while on one hand, YSRCP leaders were resorting to physical attacks on TDP workers, the CID, on the other, is raiding the houses of TDP leaders in the name of searches.

STF arrests suspected JMB activist from Howrah station

[ad_1]
Kolkata: The Special Task Force (STF) of West Bengal Police on Saturday arrested a person suspected of having close links with Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen- Bangladesh (JMB) from the Howrah station in West Bengal.
The arrested person has been identified as Nannu Miyan.
“Originally a resident of Cooch Behar district, Miyan was arrested by our officers from Howrah station,” a state police official said.

Miyan has been booked under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967.
Miyan’s name had surfaced when the STF was investigating a case registered at the Sasan police station in North 24 Parganas district in August last year.
After cross-checking his background, it was found that his proximity to JMB started in Cooch Behar district, which borders Bangladesh.
“Since then, we have been tracking him. On Saturday, after being tipped off by our sources, the officers of STF arrested him from Howrah station. The STF is currently questioning him about his other associates,” the official said.
On April 25, the STF had arrested Nasimuddin Sheikh, a suspected Al Qaeda associate, from Hooghly district. During interrogation, he admitted that he took advantage of the Covid lockdown period to extend his network in the state.

In November last year, the STF had arrested another Al Qaeda associate, Maniruddin Khan, from South 24 Parganas district. A pen-drive was recovered from his possession which helped the STF access crucial information, including the name of Nasimuddin Sheikh.
