Corroboration: 2 independent outlets (3 source reports)

BRS working president KT Rama Rao on Monday, 5 October 2026, warned the Telangana DGP that police would be held responsible if party leader Manne Krishank is harmed, after a video surfaced showing a Congress supporter threatening Krishank with assault if he did not delete videos against Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and his family. Rama Rao alleged the threats stem from BRS exposing what he calls rampant corruption by the CM’s family, and also held Rahul Gandhi responsible for ‘lawlessness’. Separately, on the same day, BRS legal cell state panelist Gautam Prasad Nimburi lodged a complaint with Banjara Hills police over an alleged AI-morphed video targeting party leaders K Chandrashekhar Rao, KT Rama Rao and J Santosh Kumar. The complaint seeks an FIR, cyber-forensic probe, and action against the X account ‘@raretelangana’, which reportedly posted the video on 1 October using scenes from a Telugu film with fabricated dialogues. Police said a case would be registered under cybercrime laws.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Telanganatoday.com reported both incidents with direct quotes from Rama Rao and the BRS complaint, framing the threats as a consequence of corruption allegations against the CM’s family, while also covering the AI-video complaint as a separate legal action. Deccanchronicle.com reported only the complaint against the ‘Rare Telangana’ account in a brief, neutral wire-style item, omitting any mention of the threat to Krishank or Rama Rao’s warning to the DGP. The two outlets thus differ in scope: the first gives a fuller picture of BRS’s two-pronged response, political warning and legal complaint, while the second narrows to the cybercrime angle alone. The complaint seeks an FIR and forensic probe, with police confirming a case under cybercrime laws.
