There my husband was gradually gaining popularity. Raveendra was unable to digest that and was thinking that he won't survive until my husband is killed. That is the reason he got my husband killed," she alleged.She further added, "I will go to any extent with the help of our leader Perni N. Kollu Raveendra should get punished, he should get arrested. I am ready to sit on a hunger strike."Machilipatnam R Peta police station Circle Inspector Venkateswara Rao told that three persons, including a juvenile, have been arrested in connection with the case.The official said that the name of Raveendra is mentioned in the FIR.Whereas Former Minister and TDP leader Devineni Umamaheswara Rao accused the Jagan Mohan Reddy-led government in the state of conspiring to implicate former Minister Kollu Raveendra in the murder case of YSRCP leader Moka Bhaskar Rao.Rao alleged that the YSRCP government was targeting the backward and weaker sections leaders of TDP. He said that the ruling government was endlessly acting "political vendetta" against TDP leaders.Meanwhile, TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu took to Twitter and wrote: "The YS Jagan government has become a specialist of sorts in filing false ACB cases, SC/ST Atrocity Act, Nirbhaya and others. It has gone a step further by foisting false murder cases on TDP leaders. It is disgusting to see them frame leaders specifically from the backward classes. Why is Jagan so revengeful with the BCs?""Kollu Ravindra, a prominent leader hailing from the backward classes, is now being harassed with a false murder case. If TDP leaders do not yield for money/post, they are threatened, intimidated and then the police come knocking with a fake case in hand," he added.( With inputs from ANI )
