AP High court stays criminal cases against Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy

By S A Ishaqui

Hyderabad,May 20: The Andhra Pradesh High Court on Wednesday stayed all criminal proceedings against the Kadapa MP-elect, Mr Y.S Jaganmohan Reddy.

The Narsaraopet police had registered a case against Mr Jaganmohan Reddy, the son of the Chief Minister, Dr Y.S. Rajasekhar Reddy, on alleged violation of model code of conduct at an election rally on April 9, 2009.

The court of the First Additional Judicial First Class Magistrate had issued a non-bailable warrant against him.However, Mr Jaganmohan Reddy moved the High Court seeking a direction to quash all proceedings against him.

His counsel, Mr T. Pradyumna Kumar Reddy, argued that according to the instructions of the Election Commission, all political parties can canvas till 10 pm and beyond that till 11 pm without using the public address system.

He contended that Mr Jaganmohan Reddy was proceeding towards Guntur road waving hands and without using the mike. Therefore, there was no violation of election code.

Justice P.V. Sanjay Kumar, while dealing with the petition, recalled the non-bailable warrant issued by the lower court against Mr Jaganmohan Reddy.
