X
In a huge embarrassment for the ruling YSRCP in Andhra Pradesh, a sitting MLC has been arrested in connection with the murder of his former driver. MLC Ananta Udaya Bhaskar aka Ananta Babu has been arrested by the Kakinada police on charges of murdering his former driver Subramanyam. He has been booked under the acts pertaining to murder and also as per the provisions of the SC ST Atrocities Corporation.

MLC Anantababu was arrested on Sunday midnight. He has been taken to the AR Police Quarters for questioning. It may be recalled that the MLA's henchmen had admitted to have killed Subramanyam. The MLC too had admitted to having killed his former driver.

Sources say that Subramanyam had worked as a driver for Ananta Udaya Bhaskar. Subramanyam borrowed Rs 70000 from the MLC. Though he had paid back Rs 50000, the MLC has been putting pressure to repay the remaining amount. Subramanyam's wife Aparna claims that Ananta Babu's was afraid that Subramanyam would make public his dalliances with women. So, he killed Subramanyam, she said.

Meanwhile, Subramanyam's wife and parents also claimed that the MLC offered a government job to one member of the family and provide a contract job to another if they did not lodge any complaint with the police. He also offered Rs 5 lakh to the parents. However, the family members refused to take the bait.
