Ravi Prakash Can't Avoid Police Now!

Ravi Prakash Can't Avoid Police Now!

Former chief executive officer of popular Telugu television channel TV9, V Ravi Prakash, cannot avoid appearing before the Cyberabad police now, as the Supreme Court has closed all the doors of his escape from the case.

On Monday, the Supreme Court which heard the bail petition of Ravi Prakash, rejected the same.

It directed that he had no other option but to appear before the Cyberabad police for questioning in connection with the forgery and criminal conspiracy cases filed by Alanda Media and Entertainment Limited, the new management of TV9 channel.

“He has to appear before the police for interrogation as per the notice served on him under Section 41 A of the Criminal Procedure Code,” the court directed.

Ravi Prakash engaged senior Supreme Court lawyer and Congress leader Abhishek Manu Singhvi, but he could not succeed in securing bail from the court.

The Supreme Court suggested that Ravi Prakash should go back to the state high court to seek anticipatory bail. It directed the high court to conduct re-inquiry into the bail petition based on its merit on June 10 and take a decision.

“We won’t grant any anticipatory bail. The high court can take a decision depending on the merit. It can even reject the bail if it feels it appropriate,” the judges said.

However, the only solace Ravi Prakash got from the Supreme Court was that the police should give 48 hours’ notice before they arrest him.
