Hyderabad: Senior IAS officer Srilakshmi Yerra on Wednesday asked the Telangana High Court for additional time to file a rejoinder to the CBI’s counter-affidavit in the Obulapuram Mining case. Yerra, the sixth accused in the case, has a petition pending before the High Court seeking to have her name removed, following the Supreme Court’s remand.
Last week, the CBI filed its counter-affidavit opposing her discharge application, noting prima facie evidence of her involvement in the alleged misuse of office.
On Wednesday, her counsel requested permission to file a rejoinder, and the court granted the extension, ordering her to submit it by July 1 and warning that no further time would be allowed.
