HYDERABAD: The second additional metropolitan magistrate at Nampally allowed the petition filed by Jadala Ravindra of AIMIM, resulting in the rejection of the final report filed by the police The developments in turn has led to the closure of the FIR against BJP Jambagh corporator Rakesh Jaiswal.
Though the police initially conducted a detailed investigation touching upon each and every aspect of the complaint filed by AIMIM candidate J Ravindra and registered a case under IPC Section 199 (false statement made in declaration which is by law receivable as evidence), on April 30, the Abids police had filed a chargesheet against the BJP corporator after the magistrate sought a ‘status report’ to be filed by April 23 before the court.
After finding certain flaws, the court had returned the chargesheet and directed the police to correct the same, however, the police closed the case by filing a final report under the clause ‘mistaken fact’.
The final report was challenged by the AIMIM candidate and upon hearing the arguments of the counsel Khaja Aijazuddin, the court had set aside the final report filed by the Abids police and directed the police to re-submit the charge sheet.
Acting on the complaint filed by the AIMIM candidate, Abids police registered a case against BJP Jambagh corporator Rakesh Jaiswal for allegedly submitting a false affidavit with the returning officer during the GHMC polls and allegedly suppressed the fact that he has three children, which is against the GHMC election norms.
