Telangana HC to hear petition filed by Rega Kantha RaoThe Telangana High Court will hear a petition filed by former BRS MLA Rega Kantha Rao seeking the quashing of an FIR registered over allegations of sexual assault and criminal intimidation.
The FIR was registered on the basis of a complaint lodged by a woman associated with the media.
According to the complaint, the petitioner allegedly subjected the complainant to sexual assault on multiple occasions since 2022 on the promise of providing her employment in a proposed YouTube channel.
Seeking the quashing of the FIR, Rega Kantha Rao denied all the allegations and contended that the complaint relates to alleged incidents said to have occurred nearly four years ago.
The Indian Council of Arbitration, however, issued notices stating that all such objections could be raised before the arbitral tribunal.
