Justice Nandikonda Narsing Rao heard the criminal appeal filed by Janardhan Reddy, Srinivas Reddy, V.D. Raja Gopal and Ali Khan, who requested the High Court to set aside the orders of the CBI Court. In the interim applications, they requested the court to suspend the order of the CBI Court immediately, till the final disposal of the appeals by the High Court.
