The Telangana High Court on Monday directed the investigating officer not to insist on conducting a potency test on suspended trainee IPS officer M Uday Krishna Reddy until Tuesday. The court adjourned the hearing on Reddy’s plea challenging the test.
Trainee IPS officer M. Uday Krishna Reddy has been arrested and remanded to judicial custody in Hyderabad for allegedly sexually assaulting a fellow trainee officer. Police said he harassed the victim with threats, fake social media accounts, and intimidation after she ended their relationship and married another person.
The Telangana High Court declined interim relief to IPS trainee officer Uday Krishna Reddy, who is facing a sexual harassment case filed by a fellow trainee officer. The court directed notice to the complainant and posted the matter for hearing on August 26.
A trainee IPS officer was arrested in Hyderabad in connection with a sexual harassment case filed by a fellow trainee at the National Police Academy. Police conducted a medical examination before producing him before a court, while the investigation into the allegations continues.
Trainee IPS officer Uday Krishna Reddy allegedly attempted suicide and was admitted to a private hospital in critical condition. The incident comes a day after an internal inquiry reportedly found merit in sexual harassment allegations levelled against him by a fellow trainee officer.
