Titanuim Scam: CID waits for warrant to arrest KVP Ramachandra Rao

CID have sent a fax to the CBI in Delhi seeking a warrant

Hyderabad: The Crime Investigation Department said it is waiting for an arrest warrant against Rajya Sabha member K.V.P Ramachandra Rao.

CID chief T. Krishna Prasad said, “We have received the Red Corner notice against Mr Ramachandra Rao. There is no warrant issued by the Indian court in it. Therefore, we have sent a fax to the CBI in Delhi seeking a warrant. We will take a decision after getting the warrant from the CBI court.”

The CID chief reviewed the legal position on the Red Corner notice with experts on Friday. The extradition special court at Patiala House shall issue a warrant based on which Mr Ramachandra Rao will be arrested, and he will be initially produced in a local court.

CBI sources in Delhi said that they will file a petition in the Patiala House court to get a warrant. Meanwhile, Telugu Desam chief N. Chandrababu Naidu asked Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan to permit the CID to arrest Mr Ramachandra Rao.
