Hyderabad: The Anti-Corruption Branch (ACB) on Sunday caught TDP MLA Revanth Reddy red-handed in a multi-crore bribery attempt. The ACB trapped him with prior information.
Revanth allegedly offered Rs 5 crore bribe to another MLA Elvis Stepheson, who trapped him with ACB's help. The ACB conducted a spy operation and caught Revanth with Rs 50 lakh.
Reacting to the incident, TDP MP CM Ramesh called it a conspiracy against them. "It is all conspiracy against our MLA, he has not offered any bribe… He was just going to him home when in the way police stopped him. There is no spy shoot, let the truth come in front. Revnath Reddy will speak to media," he told CNN-IBN.
Another TDP MLA Peddi Reddy said, "The government has intentionally did this sting operation and arrested him. This is undemocratic and unconstitutional. Our current demand is that we want to know where Mr Reddy is."
