Bharat Rashtra Samithi firebrand KT Rama Rao turned up the heat on Sunday, demanding a sitting judicial commission to investigate the forensic lab fire in Hyderabad that he brands as a blatant evidence-destruction conspiracy linked to CM Revanth Reddy and the ‘vote-for-note’ probe. From Hanamkonda’s campaign trail, KTR dissected the incident’s red flags for a rapt media audience.
Secure premises, winter chill, absent 24-hour staff, and flip-flopping official narratives on destruction scale scream suspicion. FIR disclosures shattered initial ‘minimal loss’ claims, confirming decade-old evidence from 2015 incinerated entirely.
Why did firefighting consume over three hours in a contained first-floor blaze across three floors? Fifty systems, servers, and forensic goldmines vaporized, KTR noted, imperiling countless grave crimes beyond the political flashpoint.
“Public safety and justice integrity are under siege,” he declared, fingering CM’s shadowy Delhi patrons. KTR pressed for central agencies’ swift action, a retired judge’s oversight, and challenged the police brass: publish everything if autonomy holds. Labeling police factions as CM’s private guard, he insisted on unvarnished facts.
This forensic inferno, perilously synced with case climax, amplifies BRS’s crusade against alleged cover-ups. As Telangana watches, KTR’s probe push signals a showdown over destroyed proofs and democratic trust, with justice hanging by a thread.
