Krishna district police whisk away TDP leader Ayyanna Patrudu from Vizag airport, release him at Nakkapalli

Senior Telugu Desam Party (TDP) leader Ch. Ayyanna Patrudu was whisked away by a police team from Krishna district at the Visakhapatnam Airport on September 1 (Friday), soon after he arrived in the city from Hyderabad.

The police, however, released Mr. Patrudu on NH-16, near Vempadu Toll Plaza, at Nakkapalli, about 80-km from the airport, after issuing him a notice under Section 41 (A) of the CrPC.

The former Minister was served notice for his alleged derogatory comments against Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, Ministers Ambati Rambabu and R.K. Roja, and other YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) leaders at a meeting organised recently at Gannavaram as part of the Yuva Galam padayatra of party national general secretary N. Lokesh.
