Bandi Sanjay alleges widespread phone tapping under KCR, demands CBI probe

Union Home Affairs Minister Bandi Sanjay Kumar today alleged that during the previous BRS regime, phone tapping was carried out on a massive scale, targeting political leaders, businessmen, film personalities, professors and even judges.

- 

Speaking to reporters after appearing before the Special Investigation Team (SIT) at Dilkusha Guest House here, he claimed that his own phone, along with those of Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, BRS MLAs, and even members of former Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao’s family, had been tapped.

Bandi Sanjay said the tapping was done under the pretext of monitoring Maoists, but in reality, it was used to keep tabs on political activities.

He accused KCR and his son of misusing the Special Intelligence Branch (SIB) to target rivals and even colleagues within the BRS.
