The Andhra Pradesh Crime Investigation Department (CID) on Monday, September 11, filed a Prisoner in Transit (PT) petition in the Vijayawada ACB Court seeking custody of former Chief Minister and Telugu Desam Party (TDP) supremo N Chandrababu Naidu in the Amaravati Inner Ring Road case. The TDP leader is already in judicial custody after the CID arrested him on September 9 in an alleged skill development scam.
In May 2022, the CID had registered an FIR against Chandrababu Naidu, former Minister for Municipal Administration and Urban Development Ponguru Narayana and others, for alleged irregularities in the construction of an internal ring road in Amaravati. The CID alleged that the alignment of the Inner Ring Road was manipulated to provide undue benefit to the Narayana Group of Institutions (headed by Narayana), Heritage Foods (founded by Naidu) and a few other private firms, at a cost to the public exchequer. The FIR was filed based on a complaint from YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) Mangalagiri MLA, Alla Rama Krishna Reddy.
