Summary:

I was conscious of the fact that news about an attack on me has the potential to provoke serious disturbances in the state. VIJAYAWADA: YSR Congress chief Jaganmohan Reddy termed the AP Police investigation into the attack on him at Visakhapatnam airport as ‘motivated and unfair’.In a letter to Union home minister Rajnath Singh , Jaganmohan Reddy narrated the incident and said, “I was provided with the necessary first aid by the duty doctor at the airport. Collection of proper evidence and conduct of investigation without any pre-determination or pre-judgment are vital components of a fair investigation. The state investigating agencies, despite having ample evidence against the assailant, are desperately trying to subvert the probe by proceeding only in the direction of terming the entire attack, an internal ploy of the YSR Congress Party. “This would ensure that the investigation would not be vitiated, the real reasons behind the attack on me would be unearthed and the perpetrators to justice,” he observed..
