Hearing on CBI plea today

Staff Reporter

ANANTAPUR: Hearing on the petition filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) seeking custody of two suspects in the Paritala Ravindra murder case -- V. Hanumantha Reddy and P. Rammohan Reddy -- for interrogating them again was inconclusive on Tuesday as the defence requested time for filing their counter.

On the petition moved by the CBI, the AJFCM, A. Jayaraj, asked the defence whether they had any objections over giving the two suspects to CBI custody again. In response, the defence counsel, C. Adisesha Reddy, sought one day time for filing their counter. The hearing will be resumed on Wednesday.
