The Nampally court also issued summons to Sandra Venkata Veerayya, Sebastian, Uday Sinha, Matthayya and Krishna Keertan Reddy. The court will hear the entire cases for which summons has been issued. The Metropolitan Sessions Judge (MSJ) court ordered them to appear for trial on October 4.

ED has named Revanth Reddy, TDP ex-MLC Vem Narender Reddy’s son Vem Krishan Keertan Reddy, Sebastian, a mediator in the scam, and others.
