Desam MLA Admits Links With Nayeem!

At last, one MLA has come out openly to admit his links with dreaded Maoist-turned-gangster Nayeemuddin alias Nayeem, who was shot dead in an encounter with police at Shadnagar on August 8.

This MLA is none other than R Krishnaiah, TDP MLA from L B Nagar constituency, who claims to be championing the cause of backward classes. The MLA, who has never been active in the TDP politics, told a new channel that he had very good relationship with Nayeem right from the days of his association with Radical Students Union.

“He was my well-wisher and wanted to see me as the chief minister, as I represent weaker sections. He used to say that I should have become chief minister in 2014. I had participated in Bhongir Urs and Ganesh Chaturthi festivals organised by Nayeem in the past,” he said.

Krishnaiah, however, said he had no financial relations with him.

“I had no idea about clandestine activities. After becoming MLA, I did not meet him many times, but I used to speak to him. When some of his victims came to me seeking my help, I called him and pulled him up for harassing innocents. The last time I spoke to him was two or three months before his encounter death,” he said.

The MLA demanded a CBI inquiry into the Nayeem episode.

“If I get summons from the SIT, I will appear before them and give whatever information I know. But I feel justice would be done only if the case is entrusted to the CBI,” he said.
