Suspended Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Vishnu Murthy has landed himself in more trouble by holding a press conference without the prior approval of senior officers.
The event held at the Press Club Hyderabad is considered a violation of disciplinary rules, DCP Central Zone, Hyderabad Police, Akshansh Yadav said in a statement.
Mr. Vishnu Murthy has been attached to the DGP office and was suspended from October 2024 as Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Task Force of Nizamabad for misconduct in his posting. This unauthorized act has prompted the Hyderabad Police to submit a report to the DGP calling for further disciplinary action.
During the press conference, Mr. Vishnu Murthy addressed the recent comments made by actor Allu Arjun who criticized the police. The suspended ACP warned the actor against defaming the police force, accusing him of not understanding legal principles.
DCP Akshansh Yadav assured that those who violate the code of conduct will not be tolerated and appropriate action will be taken. Now the DGP’s office has been given the responsibility to investigate the matter and take necessary action.
