Telangana High Court extends interim relief to Harish Rao
The interim order granted to the BRS MLA in connection with the phone tapping case extended till February 12
Hyderabad: Justice K Lakshman of the Telangana High Court on Wednesday extended the interim order granted to BRS MLA T Harish Rao till January 28 in connection with the phone tapping case till February 12. Justice Lakshman earlier directed the Panjagutta police not to arrest Rao.
On Wednesday, senior advocate Dama Seshadri Naidu represented Harish Rao. However, the public prosecutor sought further time to enable them to represent through senior advocate Siddarth Luthra. The judge expressed dissatisfaction on the public prosecutor for not taking necessary steps to represent the case when it was scheduled.
The FIR stems from allegations made by Gadhagoni Chakradhar Goud, who claimed that Harish Rao used State intelligence resources to illegally tap his phone and those of his family members. The complaint alleged that these actions were part of a broader effort to intimidate Goud due to his social activism and political rivalry with Harish Rao.
