TDP MLA Atchnnaidu discharged from hospital, sent to prison

Vijayawada, Jul 1 (UNI) Telugu Desam Party deputy floor leader in the Legislative Assembly K Atchennaidu, who was arrested in the ESI medical equipment purchases scam, was discharged from the government general hospital in Guntur on Wednesday and was shifted to sub-jail here.
Mr Atchennaidu, who was the minister for Labour in the N Chandrababu Naidu headed erstwhile government, was arrested by the Anti-Corruption Bureau officials in the alleged scam. He was admitted to the GGH on June 13 and underwent surgery. The court sent him to three days judicial custody and the ACB sleuths questioned him in the hospital itself on the alleged scam.
However, he was discharged from the hospital against his wish. Mr Atchennaidu asked the superintendent of hospital to conduct a Coronavirus test but that was not conducted on him. The former minister was shifted to a sub-jail here this evening amid heavy police security.
