The POCSO case registered against Bandi Sanjay Kumar’s son Bandi Bhagirath has triggered intense political and legal attention in Telangana, with the matter now pending before the Telangana High Court. The case, which has sparked widespread discussion across social and political circles, is currently under active investigation by the police as well as judicial scrutiny.
Bandi Bhagirath has approached the Telangana High Court seeking quashing of the POCSO case along with anticipatory bail. In his petition, he has argued that the complainant is not a minor and alleged that the case has been filed with political motives. The High Court is scheduled to hear the matter, and its verdict is expected to be crucial in determining the next course of action, including the possibility of arrest and further investigation.
Meanwhile, confusion has emerged over communication between the accused and investigating authorities. Bhagirath’s legal team claims that he informed the Pet Basheerabad police through email that he would appear before the Special Investigation Team (SIT) on Friday morning. However, Cyberabad police have clarified that no such official communication has been received, raising questions over procedural clarity in the case.
Police have intensified efforts to trace Bhagirath after he failed to appear for questioning over the past few days. Officials have issued fresh notices and reportedly visited his relatives’ residence in Karimnagar to serve summons after failing to locate him in Hyderabad. Authorities continue to make efforts to secure his presence before investigators for questioning.
With the High Court scheduled to hear the bail and quash petitions and police simultaneously pursuing investigation and procedural actions, the case has reached a critical stage. The outcome of the court hearing is expected to significantly influence the direction of the probe, while Cyberabad police await judicial clarity to proceed further.
