SDC Scam: AP HC Rejects Plea To Quash FIR Against Chandrababu Naidu

TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu gets no relief as Andhra Pradesh High Court dismissed petition seeking to quash an FIR registered against him in connection with the Skill Development Corporation scam.

The Andhra Pradesh CID will seek custody of Naidu for further interrogation in the special court for Anti-Corruption Bureau in Vijayawada.

Special Public Prosecutor YN Vivekananda told media, “Quash petition is dismissed. We are seeking police custody.”

Meanwhile, the ACB court extended the former CM’s judicial remand by 2 days till September 24 in the Skill Development Corporation scam.

The ACB court is expected to hear the police custody petition today.

Previously on September 9, Chandrababu Naidu was arrested for allegedly misappropriating funds from the Skill Development Corporation, leading to an alleged loss of over Rs 300 crore to the state exchequer.

He is currently lodged in the Rajamahendravaram Central Prison.
