The accused include IPS officers PV Sunil Kumar and PSR Sitaramanjaneyulu, as well as retired officials R Vijay Paul, a former police officer, and G Prabhavati, former superintendent of Guntur Government General Hospital. The complaint, filed a month ago and backed by legal opinion, resulted in the case being registered under various sections of the IPC at Nagarampalem police station in Guntur.
Raju's arrest in May 2021 during the Covid-19 second wave has been a contentious issue, with allegations of improper arrest procedures and mistreatment despite his recent open-heart surgery. He accused the accused of conspiracy, alleging that false medical reports were created to cover up injuries sustained during custody.
