High tension prevailed on Rd. No 22 Jubilee Hills here late on Friday when activists of the Congress party confronted the police alleging that the latter helped personnel of a retired bureaucrat escape the residence even as searches were in progress for alleged hoarding of huge cash.
At least three personnel who were in plain clothes left on motorcycles without registration plates, they alleged. The police resorted to mild lathi charge to restore order as the activists attempted blocking the personnel. Videos of related incidents went viral on social media.
Chaos unfolded as flying squad teams of the Election Commission, Income Tax and Election officials entered the residence of retired bureaucrat A.K. Goel for searches, based on a complaint that the house was a dump for huge cash allegedly for distribution by BRS during elections.
