—Hyderabad:
Hyderabad City Police ne Crime No. 243/2024 (Panjagutta Police Station) ke tahat chal rahi illegal phone surveillance case ki investigation par bada update diya hai. Is case ke silsile mein banayi gayi Special Investigation Team (SIT) ne former Minister aur MLA Siricilla, K.T. Rama Rao (KTR) ko notice jaari kiya tha.
Police ke mutabiq, 23 January 2026 ko KTR Jubilee Hills Police Station mein 11:00 baje SIT ke Investigation Officer ke samne pesh hue. Yahan unse case ke sambandhit tamam pehluon par detail mein poochtaach ki gayi.
Police ne bataya ki poochtaach ke dauran maujood evidence ke saath case ke important aspects ko analyse kiya ja raha hai. KTR ko hidayat di gayi hai ki wo kisi bhi witness se contact ya influence na karein, aur zarurat padne par unhe dobara summon bhi kiya ja sakta hai.
Hyderabad Police ne saaf kiya hai ki yeh investigation sirf Crime No. 243/2024 se judi hai, jismein hazaron nagrikon ke illegal aur unauthorised phone interception ke aarop lage hain. Isme politicians, businesspersons, journalists, judiciary se jude log aur kai prominent personalities shamil batayi ja rahi hain.
Police ne kuch media reports ko misleading aur baseless bataya hai, jisme yeh daawa kiya ja raha hai ki phone tapping security grounds par hui aur koi illegality nahi thi. Investigation Agency ne aise daawon ko kharij karte hue kaha hai ki jaanch poori tarah kanoon ke tahat, fair aur professional tareeke se ki ja rahi hai.
Aakhir mein Hyderabad Police ne awaam se appeal ki hai ki unverified ya gumrah karne wali jaankari ko share na karein aur sirf official aur lawful sources par hi bharosa karein.
