In the Andhra Pradesh liquor scam case, YSRCP MP Mithun Reddy, who was recently released on interim bail, faces a fresh hearing. The ACB Court had earlier granted him interim bail to cast his vote in the Vice-Presidential election, with a direction to surrender at Rajahmundry Central Jail on September 11. His lawyer argued for regular bail before the court, which adjourned the hearing to September 12.
Meanwhile, the court also postponed the hearing on co-accused Chanakya’s bail plea to September 11. In another development, three accused in the same case — Dhanunjay Reddy, Krishnamohan, and Balaji Govindappa (A31, A32, A33) — were granted regular bail by the ACB Court. They were released from jail on September 7.
However, the Special Investigation Team (SIT) challenged their bail in the Andhra Pradesh High Court, seeking a stay order. The SIT also requested the court to deny default bail petitions of other accused. The High Court, after hearing the matter, issued notices to the recently released individuals.
Additionally, the SIT urged that bail not be granted to other accused in the liquor scam case. The High Court adjourned further hearings in the matter to September 11. This case continues to draw attention as multiple bail petitions and legal challenges unfold.
