The police on Monday said a fresh notice would be served to veteran Telugu actor Mohan Babu, who was earlier exempted by the Telangana High Court from appearing before the police for "probable breach of peace", till December 24.
Rachakonda police commissioner G Sudheer Babu told reporters that they would deal with the issue with firmness and as per law.
He was responding to a query on the plan of action with regard to the Mohan Babu case "We will follow the process which is laid down. This issue will be dealt with firmness. Notices were issued to them under section 126 BNSS to bind them over. They sought time. There is a process. They can take time... He has got time till December 24, tomorrow. Again, notice will be issued. We will do as per the legal way," he said.
The family of Mohan Babu was recently in the news over alleged disputes in the family.
Mohan Babu and his two sons, Vishnu and Manoj, were served notices earlier this month under Section 126 BNSS to appear before the Rachakonda Commissioner of Police on December 11 for a “probable breach of peace”.
Accordingly, Manoj had appeared before the police commissioner. Mohan Babu and Vishnu approached the Telangana High Court seeking to stay the notices issued to them.
The court granted them relief, deferring the appearance until December 24.
A police case was also registered against the veteran actor for allegedly assaulting a video journalist here who was covering the “dispute” between the actor and his younger son Manoj.
Meanwhile, in a related development, the Telangana HC dismissed a petition filed by Mohan Babu seeking anticipatory bail in a case registered against him for allegedly assaulting a video journalist.
