The Cyberabad police have issued a look-out notice against Bageerath, the son of BJP leader Bandi Sanjay, in connection with a case registered under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. Bageerath has been absconding since the First Information Report (FIR) was filed on May 8, 2026. He has approached the Telangana High Court seeking interim protection from arrest.
Details of the Case
The case was registered at the Cyberabad police station following a complaint alleging sexual offences against a minor. The identity of the victim and specific details of the complaint have not been disclosed to the public. The police have been actively searching for Bageerath, who is believed to be evading arrest.
Legal Proceedings
Bageerath's legal team has filed a petition before the Telangana High Court, requesting interim bail or protection from arrest. The court is expected to hear the matter shortly. Meanwhile, the Cyberabad police have intensified their efforts to locate and apprehend the accused.
The look-out notice has been issued to all ports and airports across the country to prevent Bageerath from fleeing abroad. Authorities are also coordinating with other states to track his movements.
Political Reactions
The case has drawn significant political attention, with opposition parties criticizing the ruling party over the alleged delay in action. Bandi Sanjay, a prominent BJP leader, has not made any public statement on the matter. Supporters of the accused have maintained silence, while women's rights groups have demanded a thorough investigation and swift justice.
The Cyberabad police have assured that the investigation is progressing and that all necessary legal procedures are being followed. They have urged anyone with information about Bageerath's whereabouts to come forward.
