Hyderabad, March 9 : Justice L. Narasimha Reddy of the AP High Court on Tuesday disposed of a petition filed against Mr Chanumolu Rajiv, a leader of the Praja Rajyam, with a direction to the police to proceed with investigation.
Mr G.V.N.N.S.N. Murthy, a practising advocate in Vijayawada, filed a police complaint in April 2009, alleging that one Murali Krishna Gangadhar and Chanumolu Rajiv took money from him promising to appoint him to the post of a district judge.
He approached the High Court alleging that the police failed to take action against Rajiv. He sought a direction to the CBI to conduct a probe into the matter.
According to the petitioner, he paid Rs 25 lakh after he saw an important person in a high post connected with the selection process having tea at the residence of Chanumolu Rajiv in Visakhapatnam.
While disposing of the case, the judge observed that the investigation officer is at liberty to refer the matter to the CID or the CBI based on the investigation.
