Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu sent to two-day CID custody

VIJAYAWADA: Vijayawada ACB Court on Friday granted custody of former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu to the CID for two days for questioning him in skill development case.

The court directed the Crime Investigation Department (CID) to question Naidu in Rajahmundry Central Jail where he is currently lodged.

Pronouncing the orders on the CID petition, the judge directed it to conduct the questioning from 9.30 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the presence of Naidu’s lawyers. The court also directed that photographs and videos of the questioning should not be released.

The CID had sought the custody of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chief for five days but the court allowed the custody only for two days. The court asked the CID to submit names of the officials who will be questioning him.

The judge directed that after the end of the two-day custody, Naidu should be produced before the court through video-conference.

The ACB Court pronounced its orders after Andhra Pradesh High Court dismissed Naidu’s petition to quash the FIR registered against him and to set aside his judicial remand. (IANS)
