The wife of the man who died last month – after he was run over by a car in ex-Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy’s convoy – has spoken of ‘foul play’. The claim came shortly after a meeting with Mr Reddy, who has been named as an ‘accused’ in a culpable homicide police case filed over the man’s death.
“My husband suffered minor injuries to his shoulder and hands… why would he die because of that? What happened in the ambulance?” Lourdu Mary, 55-year-old Cheeli Singaiah’s wife, asked.
She said members of Mr Reddy’s YSR Congress Party had tried to shift Mr Singaiah to the hospital on their own, but were stopped and her husband had to wait for an ambulance.
