In a major development indicative of the intra-party feud in the ruling YSR Congress Party, a second-rung leader has levelled charges of kidnap, assault and death threat by Jammalamadugu legislator M. Sudheer Reddy.
Adireddy Srinivasulu Reddy, a close follower of the MLA’s arch rival and rebel leader Gangavaram Sekhar Reddy, was at the receiving end for making a social media post against Mr. Sudheer Reddy recently.
Adireddy told the media in Kadapa on Thursday that he was kidnapped by the MLA’s followers when he was riding his two-wheeler. “I was forced into one of the escort vehicles of the MLA, roughed up throughout the journey from Potladurthi to Nidizivvi. I was even assaulted right in the MLA’s presence by his followers. Referring to MLC Anantha Babu episode, Sudheer Reddy openly threatened to kill me and dump my body at my residence by parcel,” Srinivasulu Reddy narrated.
