The most significant arrest so far in the infamous Andhra Pradesh liquor scam, which took place during YS Jagan’s tenure as Chief Minister, has now been made. According to the latest reports, YSRCP MP Mithun Reddy has been arrested by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) assigned to investigate the case.
Mithun Reddy appeared at the SIT office in Vijayawada earlier today and participated in the investigation. After the initial questioning, the MP was taken into custody by SIT officials.
The SIT interrogated Mithun Reddy for nearly seven hours before formally arresting him at their office. He will be presented before a magistrate shortly after undergoing a medical examination.
This is the most high-profile arrest in the case so far, and it is expected to have a significant impact as the investigation continues.
The arrest comes shortly after Mithun Reddy was denied anticipatory bail by both the Andhra Pradesh High Court and the Supreme Court of India.
The main allegation against Mithun Reddy is that he played a key role in switching the liquor payment system from automated to manual mode, which allegedly led to large-scale corruption in the financial process.
