Amaravathi, Feb 3: The politburo member of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP), Mr Varla Ramaiah, on Friday felt that no power on earth can save the Chief Minister, Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy, and his wife, Mrs Bharathi Reddy, from the murder case of Mr Jagan’s paternal uncle, Mr Vivekananda Reddy.
Mr Varla Ramaiah told media persons at the party headquarters here that the YSRCP MP, Mr Avinash Reddy, admitted before the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) that on the day Mr Vivekananda Reddy was done to death he spoke to one Mr Naveen and the Officer on Special Duty (OSD), Mr Krishnamohan. Mr Avinash also admitted that through these two persons he repeatedly made phone calls to Mr Jagan and Mrs Bharathi Reddy.
Even after Mr Avinash confessed these facts before the CBI, how can the Jagan couple claim that they are in no way connected with the murder, Mr Varla Ramaiah asked. He demanded Mr Jagan and Mrs Bharathi to reveal the facts to the people of the State and what they know about the murder of Mr Viveka.
It will be a blunder if they continue to claim that they do not have any knowledge about the murder, Mr Varla Ramaiah said. They are completely in the know of the things as to who committed the crime, how Mr Viveka was done to death and who is behind the murder, Mr Varla Ramaiah felt.
The crucial evidence in the murder now is what Mr Avinash Reddy conveyed to Mr Jagan and Mrs Bharathi over phone on the day Mr Vivekananda Reddy was murdered, Mr Ramaiah felt. Pointing out that Mr Avinash has already admitted before the CBI that whenever he wants to speak to Mrs Bharathi he will first give a call to Mr Naveen, the TDP politburo member stated that Mr Avinash also informed the CBI that whenever he wants to speak to Mr Jagan he will first call the OSD, Mr Krishnamohan.
Though it is not clear yet whether Mr Jagan, Mrs Bharathi Reddy, Mr Naveen and Krishnamohan were at the murder spot on the day when Mr Viveka was done to death but one thing is clear that their phones were with the Chief Minister’s couple, Mr Varla Ramaiah stated. Even after the CBI investigation clearly revealed that Mr Avinash repeatedly gave calls to the phones of Mr Naveen and Mr Krishnamohan on the day the murder took place, how Mrs Bharathi Reddy and Mr Jagan can claim that they did not receive any calls, he asked.
It is the responsibility of Mr Jagan and his wife to reveal as to what they repeatedly spoke with Mr Avinash, he said. “If I say that Mr Jagan and his wife have directed Mr Avinash to destroy the evidence on the murder spot, is Mr Jagan dare enough to deny it,” Mr Varla Ramaiah asked.
On March 15, 2019 at 6.29 am, Mr Avinash was present at the body of Mr Vivekananda Reddy and he resisted the police visiting the spot even when the body was at the spot, he said. Exactly at the same time Mr Avinash repeatedly gave calls, he said and asked whether the calls were given to the Chief mInister couple.
“Did you personally call a compounder from your own hospital to apply sutures to the body and did Mrs Bharathi Reddy or the Chief Minister ask Mr Avinash to describe it as a heart attack but not a murder,” Mr Varla Ramaiah asked. He felt that the Chief Minister couple can not escape from the murder case and demanded the Chief Minister to at least now reveal the facts to the people of the State.
