The case has been registered under kidnapping, wrongful confinement and criminal conspiracy.Meanwhile, lawyer Shilpa's family condemned the NIA searches and her detention without notice. They said she had quit CMS long ago and alleged that the case was fake and part of a conspiracy to harass her.They said since Shilpa had been fighting cases and raising voice on behalf of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Backward Classes and minorities, she was being targeted.Shilpa's husband Bandi Kiran said she was implicated in similar false cases in the past and she had to spend seven months in jail.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
