YSR Congress rebel MP, K Raghurama Krishnam Raju, had filed a petition in the Supreme Court seeking transfer of AP chief minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy’s cases to another state. He said that Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa’s cases were transferred to Karnataka.
Raghurama Krishnam Raju said that Jagan Mohan Reddy’s cases were postponed in the court for 3,041 times so far. There was no regular hearing of the cases in the CBI court in Hyderabad, he said and wanted the Supreme Court to transfer the case to another state.
The rebel MP said that there are 11 cases filed by the CBI against Jagan Mohan Reddy. He wanted the Supreme Court to use CRPC section 406 and transfer the cases to another state, as was done in the case of Jayalalithaa.
He said that there was no progress in the cases of CBI in the Hyderabad court in the last ten years. If this trend continues, there is no possibility of completing hearing of the cases in the near future, he said.
Raghurama Krishnam Raju wondered why the CBI and other investigating agencies were silent as the court is postponing the cases. He also wanted the Supreme Court to direct the central investigating agencies to speed up the hearing of the cases in the court. He also told the supreme court to direct the Central government to take steps to complete the hearing of the cases and punish the guilty.
Raghurama Krishnam Raju told the court that case 8/2012 was postponed 259 times, while case 9/2012 was postponed 374 times, case 24/2014 was postponed 217 times, case 12/2013 was postponed 243 times, 26/2013 was postponed 280 times, 28/2013 was postponed 213 times, 27/2013 was postponed 228 times, case 24/2013 was postponed 210 times, case 14/2012 was postponed 375 times, case 25/2013 was postponed 266 times, and case 10/2012 was postponed 376 times.
He wanted the supreme court to take a call on these cases and ensure that they are transferred to another state and hearing is completed at the earliest.
