Dileep was arrested upon his return from the US where he went to attend the launch of a memoir book dedicated to his late father Konatham Bakka Reddy. He was allegedly taken into custody as soon as he arrived in the Hyderabad airport, despite the High Court permission to visit the US. Over the past year, around 15 cases have been filed against Dileep which he described as illegal and a form of harassment for questioning the Congress government’s failures.
