JSP Faces Court Setback in Youth Death Case
A young man named Muvvala Nagesh died in 2021 at a college in Srikakulam.
His family says the college management hurt him, but the police say he died because of a love problem.
The family is upset because they think the police and a political party, Jana Sena Party (JSP), are not being fair.
The JSP leader, Pawan Kalyan, had promised to help the family, but now the family thinks he is protecting the college because the college chairman joined the JSP and gave money to the party.
The family wants the case to be investigated by a special agency, the CBI, and the court is thinking about it.
The family's lawyer is also saying that people are losing trust in justice because leaders are taking money from those who do wrong things.
The High Court ordered the Tekkali CI to present case details in the next hearing of Muvvala Nagesh's death case.
Nagesh's family alleges the JSP president, Pawan Kalyan, is protecting the college management after receiving funds from them.
The police initially supported the family but later gave a clean chit to the college, stating Nagesh's death was due to love failure.
Nagesh's parents filed a petition in the High Court seeking a CBI investigation into the case.
The court expressed doubts about the completeness of the police inquiry and considered transferring the case to the CBI.
