Surender Reddy moved the petition, aggrieved by the actions of the police in detaining and arresting BJP State president Bandi Sanjay from his residence in Karimnagar on April 4.
According to Surender Reddy, who filed a Habeas Corpus petition in the High Court, police should notify a person's family if they have been arrested in accordance with Section 50 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) and claimed that Sanjay's family was not informed of his arrest or given permission to take medication by the police.
