Case filed against Renuka Chowdhury for grabbing cop’s collar

Congress leader Renuka Chowdhury on Thursday charged for grabbing the collar of a police official during protests in Hyderabad.  Earlier in the day, the Congress leader did this in an attempt to resist detention during the party’s protest over the Enforcement Directorate (ED) summons to Rahul Gandhi. A case has been registered against Chowdhury for her action under IPC sections 151, 140, 147, 149, 341, 353 (Assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty), said a police official. The Telangana Congress held a protest in Hyderabad.  Several Congress workers and leaders were detained by the police. However, Renuka said she did not misbehave with the police official.  “I didn’t assault. I’ve been booked, I’ll face it. That’s law. I don’t have anything against that young man. He never did anything to me. I was losing balance and I held on. If you move, I’ll have to hold this to steady myself as we were being pushed and bullied from back,” she said. Several Congress leaders, including Telangana unit chief A Revanth Reddy, legislature party leader Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka, the state unit’s working president T Jagga Reddy and former minister J Geetha Reddy, were taken into custody by the police. Revanth tweeted: arrests will not deter our spirit.

According to reports, a two-wheeler was set on fire and some protesters even climbed on a state-run city bus. The police resorted to lathi-charge to disperse the party workers as they tried to cross barricades outside Raj Bhavan.

Congress workers held a protest march in Bengaluru and Karnataka Congress chief DK Shivakumar, CLP leader Siddaramaiah and other leaders and workers of the party were detained by police during their protest in Bengaluru. Bengaluru witnessed traffic snarls and an ambulance was seen stuck in the traffic. Bengaluru Police said the Congress protest was against the High Court’s order.
