Manchireddy Kishan Reddy, a former Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) MLA from Ibrahimpatnam, and Amoy Kumar, a former Ranga Reddy district collector, have been booked by Telangana police under the SC/ST Act for allegedly abusing Ibrahimpatnam Municipal Chairperson Kappari Sravanthi.
Sections 504 and 506 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Section 3 (1) (r) (s) of the SC/ST Prevention of Atrocities (POA) Act have been used to file the complaint.
Kappari Sravanthi, who was unanimously elected Chairperson, accused the former MLA of harassing and abusing her when she refused to accept the alienation of Gram Panchayat and municipality lands. She claims that the MLA demanded Rs 5 lakh per month from her and threatened to fire her if she did not comply.
Amoy Kumar, a former Ranga Reddy collector, is also charged in the case for allegedly forcing Sravanthi to file for leave based on false claims and making insulting remarks about her caste.
Sravanthi has demanded that the former MLA, his son, the ex-collector, and another individual face harsh punishment for harassment, insults based on her caste, and coercing her into taking a three-month leave. The police have opened an investigation and have lodged a case.
