The internal squabbles among Congress leaders got to a new high, with party MP and former TPCC president N Uttam Kumar Reddy seeking police assistance in containing what he called “trolling” on social media platforms by unidentified people.
However, a police investigation resulted in a raid on the Banjara Hills office of a Youth Congress leader and the seizure of some computers. The raid had all the hallmarks of a drama, with the ruling BRS being blamed for the raid by the Youth Congress Shiv Sena Reddy.
The mystery surrounding the police raid on the Youth Congress social media war room in Banjara Hills on Monday came to an end on Tuesday, when the Hyderabad Cyber Crime police said they seized computers and laptops in response to a complaint made by former TPCC leader and Nalgonda MP Uttam Kumar Reddy.
On Monday evening, four plainclothes police officers raided Shiv Sena Reddy’s social media war room cum office. Soon after, the Youth Congress leader blamed the raid on the BRS party.
