Sullia: Suspected Naxals once again sighted in Karavali. Three people believed to be Naxals were reportedly observed on Friday afternoon at the border area of Madikeri-Sullia.

It is said that a group of suspected Naxalites visited two houses at Gundigadde village in Sampaje. They reportedly collected some rice items from the house of a Dayanand and proceeded to the jungle.

However, Sullia Sampaje police along with Anti-Naxal Force reached the spot and started an investigation.

Around 20 days back on January 14, a group Naxalites was reportedly spotted in Mittamajalu village of Shiradi. They had visited a few houses in Addahole and collected some cooking items. This time too, Naxals in the same number have been found.

Amaravati (PTI): Andhra Pradesh Police on Wednesday detained Srihari Pudi, general secretary, media wing of YSRCP, over a social media post against Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, said an official.

Pudi is being shifted to Kuppam in Chittoor district, where the case was registered against him, said the official.

"We are bringing him in one social media case. He is with us," the official told PTI, adding that Pudi will be produced in a local court on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, YSRCP alleged that the police have 'unlawfully' detained Pudi while he was on his way from the residence of former chief minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.

Reddy's residence is located at Tadepalli village in Guntur district.

"During the detention, police seized his laptop and mobile phone. Authorities have not disclosed where he is being taken, raising serious concerns over transparency and civil liberties," said a YSRCP press release, decrying Pudi's 'illegal arrest'.

Pudi worked as the chief public relations officer (CPRO) for Reddy when he was the chief minister of Andhra Pradesh.
