Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC) Chairman and former Director General of Police D. Gautam Sawang said on Thursday that there were never instances of any kind of interference by Chief Minister Y.S Jagan Mohan Reddy at any point of time during the investigation into the murder of Y.S Vivekananda Reddy in March 2019.
In a release, Mr. Sawang also said some allegations attributed to him in this connection in the vernacular media were “baseless misrepresentation of facts and misquotes made out of context.”
Referring to the reports that the Chief Minister had directed Kadapa MP Y.S. Avinash Reddy, E.C. Surendranath Reddy and D. Shivasankara Reddy to meet him in 2019 when he was the DGP, Mr. Sawang said the three had never met him in connection with the case.
