Hyderabad, December 16: A person, Bhumireddy Gautam Reddy, claiming to be a close relative of Kurnool district PRP leader Bhooma Nagi Reddy, created a ruckus in the Hyderabad Press Club after his demand that all the mediapersons present at the club attend a press conference he wanted to hold then and there, was turned down.
Gautam Reddy, who claimed to be against the bifurcation of the State, attacked Press Club manager Ramachander and a few others, including mediapersons, before he was caught by the mediapersons in the club. This, however, did not stop him from continuing to assault and abuse, in the vilest language, every person in the vicinity. Further, Gautam Reddy threatened the mediapersons present there with serious consequences for not heeding to him.
The club staff called the police and the police personnel with great difficulty bundled him into the police van and took him to Punjagutta Police Station and his vehicle seized. A case has been registered and investigation is on.
