Speaking about the Incident as quoted by TNM, Srikanth said “Initially they summoned me accusing me of phone theft, they left me when I stood firm and asked them to lodge a police complaint. Later in the afternoon, the supervisor called me again, when I went there, Nutan Naidu again accused me of stealing their phone. He alleged that he saw my WhatsApp status and alleged that I took the phone.”
Srikanth further added “They threatened me and told me to confess to the theft. When I remained firm and asked them where I would have gotten the phone from, they assaulted me and accused me of hacking the WhatsApp of their daughter. They physically attacked me and called a barber to tonsure my head despite pleading with them against it. I was assaulted for nearly four hours.”
