Now, minister DK Aruna gets threatening calls

,
MAHBUBNAGAR: After P Shankar Rao, it was the turn of minister D K Aruna to `receive' threatening calls. But Aruna said she is not concerned by such threats. The district police took up the matter suo motu and formed two special teams to inquire into the matter. In a related development, police unearthed six detonators on the Gadwal-Aiza road near Gadwal in the early hours of Sunday.

District SP Sudhir B
abu said the detonators were recovered following a tip-off. "They are harmless and there's nothing to worry about. It could be the handiwork of some mischief-mongers," he said. He said they have formed teams to look into the threatening calls issue though there was no formal complaint from the minister. Police have also launched a probe as to who has planted the detonators on the Gadwal-Aiza road, frequented by the minister to take part in Rachchabanda programmes.

Sources said the calls were made to the minister from a coin box by unidentified persons in Peddakothapalli village in Kollapur mandal. "The calls might have been made to stop the minister who was busy taking part in Rachchabanda programmes in her home district," sources said.

Aruna said she had no clue as to who had made these threatening calls. "I am not unduly worried. I have faced bigger odds in my political career. My father and brother were killed and I have emerged stronger in the last several years," she said.

A couple of days ago, Shankar Rao had charged the officers in the CMO as well as DGP Aravinda that they were not taking seriously the threats he has been receiving to his life.
