SIT lawyer Siddharth Luthra told the court that YSRCP leader Chevireddy Bhaskar Reddy was the main person handling AP liquor scam kickbacks. He said Chevireddy played a key role in diverting funds to different locations during the YSRCP term.
Luthra stated that TUDA vehicles were used to move the money while records falsely showed the vehicles elsewhere. During the 2024 elections, these vehicles allegedly transported funds across the state. CCTV footage from highways was cited as supporting evidence.
Opposing bail, Luthra said Chevireddy collected Rs 60 to 70 crore every month and invested the money in gold and real estate. He added that Rs 8 crore was seized during election time and that constables revealed details under Section 164.
Chevireddy’s counsel argued that the case relied only on PSO testimony and claimed political motivation. The lawyer said interrogation was over and the chargesheet was filed. After hearing both sides, the judge reserved her judgement.
