YSR Congress party has made an interesting observation on Central Bureau of Investigation joint director V V Lakshminarayana’s complaint to the police against Sakshi media: that he was silent on his “leakage” of news to a select group of media.....
Party spokesman Ambati Rambabu said though Lakshminaryana had filed a case questioning the source of getting his call data record (CDR), he did not deny talking to the judge and section of media that has been hostile towards Sakshi media group.
“It clearly shows the CBI official is guilty beyond reasonable doubt that he was a party to the conspiracy to defame YS Jaganmohan Reddy by vested interests,” he said.
Ambati said an investigation officer was not supposed to speak to a judge who was hearing the case, but the Joint Director had taken an active part in imparting inside information to a section of media. He went against the CBI manual on both counts, Ambati said.
Displaying the clippings of the section of media that published stories about what was going on in the CBI with regard to Jaganmohan Reddy in course of the investigation where news preceded events sometimes, Ambati said the CBI officer’s silence can be treated that he was a party to the conspiracy, otherwise he should have denied the stories appearing in the section of media.
Every citizen has the right to question the CBI Joint Director, if he misuses his position or conducts himself in a dubious manner, he said.
“The question of attacking his morale and trying to get into his privacy does not arise as the Joint Director had compromised on many issues,” he added.
