Hyderabad, April 18 (SocialNews.XYZ) Hyderabad police have booked another case against former Telangana chief minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao's nephew Kalvakuntla Tejeshwar Rao alias Kanna Rao, who was arrested earlier this month in connection with an alleged land-grabbing scam.
A case has been registered against Kanna Rao, a businessman, and five others on a complaint by a software employee.
The techie complained that the accused locked him in a guest house and assaulted him.
Vijay Vardhan Rao told police that he had approached Kanna Rao for his help to settle a land dispute with a relative in 2018.
On learning from one Bindu Madhuri alias Nandini that the techie has cash and gold, Kanna Rao, Nandini and others illegally detained him at a guest house. He alleged that they robbed him of cash and gold.
