A Rajendranagar court has reserved its order on a plea to extend police custody of a trainee IPS officer accused of rape, with the verdict expected on August 14. The court also issued a show-cause notice to the Attapur police station house officer, citing alleged violation of remand conditions during the accused's two-day interrogation there.
The prosecution seeks two more custody days to recover the accused's iPhone and conduct a potency test. The defence opposed both demands. The court has directed the SHO to submit CCTV footage of the custody period and a written explanation by August 14.
Lazy narratives around this case pit 'institutional cover-up' against 'media trial' without basis. The court's demand for CCTV footage is the right test: it will either confirm procedural violations or show adherence to remand rules. Until August 14, speculation helps no one. Why should either side skip due process when the evidence itself can speak? That single video could settle more than any allegation.
