If you have been away from the news, Ram Gopal Varma, in a post, allegedly shared morphed images of N. Chandrababu Naidu, Pawan Kalyan, and their families in an indecent way. This did not go well with many, and a certain Ramalingam (45) from Maddipadu filed an FIR against him under various sections. The case was filed against RGV at the Maddipadu police station in Prakasam district on November 11 for allegedly posting morphed photographs of the CM, deputy CM, and others on social media.
Ram Gopal Varma received notice
As per a Hindustan Times report, a police team from Prakasam district went to Ram Gopal Varma’s Jubilee Hills residence in Hyderabad and gave him a notice that ordered him to present himself for investigation on November 19, which is today. Prakasam district Superintendent of Police A. R. Damodar has now confirmed that he has not turned up for the probe and has sent a letter through his lawyer.
Ram Gopal Varma requests more time
"Ram Gopal Varma sent a written representation through his lawyer requesting more time, about four to five days, to appear for the investigation as he is engaged with pre-scheduled movie shooting," the SP told PTI. The filmmaker, however, is ready to cooperate with the system and has even sent his lawyer to the local circle inspector. The police are now verifying if the request made by RGV is true or false and will take a call. In these cases, if found eligible for an extension, people are given a day to a couple of days to appear. But the SP has also confirmed that if the probe finds that Ram Gopal Varma has pushed the investigation only to buy time, a police team will be sent after him.
