A massive fire at Hyderabad’s Forensic Science Lab has ignited a political storm, with BRS chief KT Rama Rao alleging it’s a CM Revanth Reddy-led scheme to torch evidence in the decade-old ‘vote-for-note’ controversy. Campaigning in Hanamkonda for civic polls, KTR laid bare the suspicious sequence to journalists, insisting on a no-holds-barred judicial investigation.
Red flags abound: blaze in a fortified, staff-manned winter facility, government U-turns from trivial harm to total evidence wipeout per FIR—2015 files inclusive. Fire suppression lagged 3+ hours despite first-floor limits in a towering edifice; 50 rigs, data vaults, servers charred beyond recovery.
The fallout transcends politics, gutting proofs for myriad heinous offenses and endangering societal safeguards, KTR warned. He spotlighted presumed Delhi heavyweight backing for the CM, clamoring for Union intervention via elite probes and retired judicial helm.
Defying the DGP to affirm police neutrality with full disclosure, KTR decried rogue units as executive muscle. With the case verdict looming, this blaze reeks of sabotage, he charged. BRS’s relentless pursuit promises to fan flames until perpetrators face the bar, restoring faith in impartial forensics and rule of law.
