Hyderabad, April 24: The AP High Court on Friday suspended a government memo stopping the ACB from arresting staff caught in disproportionate assets cases.
The memo had been issued on October 10, 2008. The ACB said it had arrested just two staff after the memo came into force. The government contended it had issued the memo at the employees’ request.
A division bench comprising Chief Justice Anil R. Dave and Justice R. Ranganathan was hearing a petition filed by Prof. M.S. Rama Krishna, a freedom fighter, asking the memo be overturned.
Mr Gandra Mohan Rao, counsel for petitioner, said the ACB was arresting staff taking petty bribes while leaving out the big fish
