CM KCR releases 'Poachgate’ video, says will send it to CJI

Just hours after polling concluded in Munugode, TRS supremo K Chandrasekhar Rao released a new video-tape on the alleged cash-for-defection scandal, where three people Ramachandra Bharati, Simhayaji and Nanda Kumar allegedly tried to poach four TRS MLAs with mammoth cash offers. Two audio and video-clips were earlier released to the media soon after 'poachgate' was busted.

Hyderabad: 

KCR said, he would send the three-hour footage to the Chief Justice of India, apex court judges, chief justices of all high courts, chief ministers of states, all media outlets and central investigating agencies like CBI, ED and Central Vigilance Commission.

"I appeal to the CJI and chief justices of all high courts with folded hands to protect and save democracy in India. Buying legislators and bulldozing elected governments has been happening brazenly in the country. There were conspiracies to dethrone elected governments in Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Delhi and Rajasthan," KCR said.

He said a 24-member team was trying to get to the bottom of the poachgate scandal, which also involved fake Aadhaar, PAN cards and driving licences to lure Opposition MLAs.
