Hyderabad, May 14: CBI which was entrusted with the duty of serving summons on the YSR Congress chief Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy in the assets case, has on Monday succeeded in handing over them, directing him to appear before the Special Court here on May 28. The CBI special court which has accepted the first charge-sheet of the CBI in which Jagan, his deputy Vijaya Sai Reddy and eleven others were named accused, has issued summons for them to appear before it on May 28. The court has also given the agency the responsibility of serving the summons on all the accused individually. As Jagan has been moving about in his hectic election campaign, CBI had a tough time catching up with him. On Sunday, a two-member team was dispatched to Kurnool where the Kadapa MP was touring, to serve the summons. The officers have found him in the residence of party leader Chennakesava Reddy in Yemmiganur and served the summons on him on Monday morning. As per the summons, Jagan has to appear before the CBI special court at 1030 am, on July 28. Though the Lotus Pond residence of Jagan was mentioned as his address in Hyderabad, CBI wanted to serve the summons on Jagan personally and finally succeeded in handing over the papers to him. CBI sleuths who reached Yemmiganur on Sunday itself, have waited till Monday morning as Jagan was in the midst of people, addressing election rallies. On Monday morning they went to Chennakeshava Reddy’s house looking like ordinary civilians and then identified themselves before serving the summons. Speculations are rife if Jagan would be arrested on the day he appears before the court. Though no one has any inkling of what would happen on the day he appears before the court, YSR Congress leadership appears to be prepared for that eventuality. It is learnt that Jagan has informed his top aides that his mother Vijayamma would continue the election campaign, if he was arrested and has requested them to guide her. Jagan’s associates are stating that arrest of their leader would mean sympathy for the family and a doom for the Congress party.
