Andhra Pradesh police told the High Court that Maoist leader Malla Rajireddy, who was arrested in Kerala and brought to the state, was not ill-treated. The assistant government pleader told a division bench that soon after his arrest in Kerala, the local magistrate had asked Rajireddy how he was treated. Rajireddy had replied that he was not ill-treated. Rajireddy, a central committee member of the Maoists, was brought to Manthani on a transit remand. Mr B. Raghunath alleged that police had violated Sections 78 and 79 of the CrPC, he said.
The bench asked Mr Raghunath whether he had mentioned the violation of the CrPC. Mr Raghunath replied that he would visit Rajireddy in jail and submit an additional affidavit.
