Nallapareddy Prasanna accuses Buchireddypalem Circle Inspector of corruption
The complaint, coming ahead of the local body elections, has created a stir in the SPSR Nellore district politics
Former Andhra Pradesh Minister and Kovur constituency MLA Nallapareddy Prasanna Kumar Reddy has accused Buchireddypalem Circle Inspector V. Durga Prasad of widespread corruption and amassing assets beyond his known income sources. The allegations were made in a complaint submitted to the Director-General of Police (Andhra Pradesh), the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB), and the Vigilance & Enforcement department ahead of the local body elections.
Reddy requested the government to take notice of the officer's financial assets gained after assuming high-profile positions. He mentioned his previous tenure as Circle Inspector in Chimakurthy, where he claimed to have accumulated considerable wealth. Reddy also cited Prasad's time in Gurajala, where he allegedly obtained call records of the then Chilakaluripeta MLA Vidadala Rajani.
Similar misuse of office, according to Reddy, occurred in Nellore Rural and Atmakur police stations. The ex-MLA demanded an impartial investigation into the matter and urged the officer be transferred to the Vacancy Reserve (VR) during the upcoming elections.
