LIVE UPDATES : YSRCP MP Krishna Raju's Bail Hearing In Supreme Court

Dave: Mr. Rohatgi wants CBI inquiry. Why not President’s Rule if the Army is involved ? What is the urgency ? Nobody gets this treatment. He also went in his own car and that means he went out of our own custody.

Dave: Thousands of people come to the Court. Nobody gets this kind of urgent hearing or this kind of treatment for a simple injury to second toe of foot. I would understand if there was serious attack. And he wants a CBI inquiry for that ?

Dave: The MP’s conduct to travel in his own car for 300 km with his own security and his foot up like that. That may have caused it. Nobody would treat MP like this.

Dave: Mr. Rao in HC himself wanted the board to be constituted. I respectfully submit that there is no serious case of injury, much less life threatening injury.

Dave: If police wanted to torture him, would they do it on the second toe of the foot ? You have immense knowledge, you know how things work. No police would ever treat an MP in this manner.

Dave: I spoke to an orthopaedic friend of mine. The fracture in his foot is an undisplaced fracture. The report doesn’t show whether it was an old or new fracture. The Army report shows it. On 17th, he didn’t have it.

Dave explains the reasonings behind edema and states that it is for medical reasons and not for injuries.

Dave shows a video of Raju travelling in his car.

Dave: All throughout he was waving at people, showing his foot and giving interviews. There was no injury to his foot then.

Dave resumes: The HC has kept everything in sealed cover. Permit me to flash my mobile phone for a second. This gentleman when he was asked to travel to the hospital in an ambulance, he refused. He travelled in his car.

(Dave shows to the bench a video of Raju travelling in his car to hospital, and showing his foot to media persons outside from the car window).

Dave: I am trying to persuade the Court why this needs to be dismissed. There are no external injuries.
