Apex court posts hearing on bail plea of Raghu Ramakrishna Raju to May 21
MP K. Raghu Ramakrishna Raju’s episode took another curious turn with the Supreme Court on Monday directing that he should be immediately taken to the Army Hospital in Secunderabad for medical examination and kept there until further orders. A member of the Lok Sabha from the ruling YSR Congress Party, Mr. Ramakrishna Raju is currently on judicial remand in a case registered against him by the CID allegedly for promoting disaffection against the State government and making hate speeches. The order to send Mr. Raju to the Army Hospital was issued by an apex court bench that comprised Justices Vineet Saran and B.R. Gavai, who posted the matter to May 21 for further hearing on the special leave petition moved by the MP for bail, which was denied by the AP High Court on May 15.More Related News
