Mohan Babu lodged a complaint against son Manoj and daughter-in-law Monika and sought police protection.
Mohan Babu complained to Rachakonda Commissioner that his younger son Manoj along with some anti-social elements employed by him caused a disturbance Sunday at his house ‘Manchu Town’ in Jalpally in Rangareddy district.
The former MP also sought protection for himself and his properties saying there was a threat from Manoj, his wife, and anti-social elements.
