Congress Legislature Party (CLP) leader Bhatti Vikramarka and Manthani MLA, D. Sreedhar Babu have questioned the government’s reluctance to ask for Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the rape of a minor girl in the city.
At a press conference here, they said when names of of the kin of Minister and MLA and other bigwigs are coming up police are bound to yield to the pressure and dilute the case. If Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao is concerned about women’s safety and wants to send a strong signal on ensuring the safety of women he should agree to CBI inquiry, Mr Vikramarka said.
He said Congress has been alerting the government about the dangers of the indiscriminately growing pub culture in the city but the CM never took the issue seriously. Now Hyderabad is in the news for all the wrong reasons like drug abuse and rape of girls in daylight.
