They tore my saree: Vijayashanti

They tore my saree: Vijayashanti

July 5, 2010



Telangana Rashtra Samithi MP from Medak Vijayashanti made a wild allegation against the Banjara Hills police, who arrested her while she was on her way to Siddipet on Saturday.

Vijayashanti tried to resist the arrest and there was a heated argument with the police, who had to forcibly shift her into the van. She alleged that the police had misbehaved with her and one of them even tore her saree. “Is it the way the police behave with a woman and that, too, an MP?” she alleged, after she was released from the jail on bail.

Vijayashanti even alleged that the police tried to get her signatures on blank papers, so that they could project as if she had admitted her guilt. She said she had refused to sign any papers. She also made it clear that she had not moved any bail petition in the court in protest against her illegal arrest. “The party has applied for the bail and I had to go by the party directions,” she said.
