It looks like the National Investigation Agency (NIA) is investigating into the knife attack on YSR Congress party president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy at Visakhapatnam on October 25 with all seriousness without leaving any scope for any gaps.
Accordingly, NIA authorities who had taken the accused J Srinivas Rao into their custody have been grilling him for several hours over the motive behind his attack on Jagan and to find out whether there was anybody else behind the attack.
The NIA authorities are also questioning the owner of Fusion Foods restaurant owner Harsha Kumar with whom Srinivas had worked to find out how the accused had brought the knife into the restaurant. Their statements are being recorded.
Interestingly, there have been reports that the NIA authorities are planning to summon Telugu Desam Party supporter and film actor Shivaji who made a sensational prediction well in advance that there would be an attack on the life of the opposition leader as part of Operation Garuda so that the state would plunge into political trouble.
His comment even before the attack on Jagan raised serious doubts on the role of several leaders.
The NIA will investigate the case in all angles and bring to light the conspiracy behind the attack on YSR Congress leader soon.
