Despite the police formally stating that they were arresting him, Posani initially refused to accept the notice. Eventually, they proceeded with the arrest and informed his wife, who he advised not to sign any notices. Ultimately, they did serve him with a notice, arrested him, and took him to Annamayya district. He is expected to be taken to the Obulavaripalle Police Station, undergo medical examinations at the Railway Kodur Government Hospital, and then be presented in court.
Posani previously served as the chairman of the Andhra Pradesh Film and Television Development Corporation (APFTVDC) during the previous government. He has faced accusations of using abusive language against women, alongside other political figures such as Chandrababu Naidu, Pawan Kalyan, and Nara Lokesh. Following the coalition government’s assumption of power, multiple complaints were filed against him at various police stations, leading to a series of registered cases.
