On the other hand, Raj Kasireddy filed a petition saying that his arrest was not right. He mentioned that the AP CID had no right to arrest him when he was in the neighbouring state.

Both the petitions were heard and the judgement was reserved for May 19. However, on Friday, May 23, both the petitions were dismissed.
