The Andhra Pradesh High Court has declared that it will appoint a special investigation team to look into the encounter killings of the red sanders smugglers from Tamil Nadu.
Naturally, the number of people killed has put the issue in national focus and with elections in Tamil Nadu round the corner; the political parties are whipping up sentiment there against AP over this issue.
In short, with human rights organizations and the Courts personally monitoring the investigation now, on legal grounds, the TDP government can find itself on difficult terrain in the day to come.
But when the issue is slowly being manipulated into a Tamil vs Andhra issue, why is YS Jagan going all out in his attack against the TDP on this issue?
This is the first opportunity for Jagan to put the Naidu government in serious legal trouble with his campaign against them.
Smothered from all sides by the cases foisted against him by the CBI mainly due to the campaign of the TDP, Jagan now wants to give them a taste of their own medicine.
