The II Additional Judicial First Class Magistrate Court in Karimnagar has issued summons to academic and writer Kancha Ilaiah in connection with a case registered against him at the Karimnagar one-town police station in 2019.
According to sources, Mr. Ilaiah was booked under Section 153-A, 499, 500, 501, 505 (C) of the IPC by the police based on a complaint filed by Bethi Mahender Reddy, an advocate of Karimnagar, in 2019.
In his complaint, Mr. Reddy alleged that a book titled “Mana Tatvam” earlier written by Mr. Ilaiah contained “objectionable remarks” against the judiciary.
