A ‘Press Release’ was circulated to various ‘media houses’ yesterday in which it was alleged that the ex-CEO of MOJO TV, Revathy Pogadadanda had embezzled money to the tune of Rs 5 crore which was meant to be disbursed to the staff as salary.
It has now emerged that the ‘press release’ which was purportedly sent by MOJO TV Employees Union, is actually a fake.
The employees of MOJO TV have filed a complaint with the police regarding this fake letter being circulated.
Greatandhra.com is in possession of the complaint which is being reproduced below:
"Spreading False Rumors in the name of Press Statement and publishing false news about Ex CEO of Mojo TV
We, working in Mojo TV as journalists are fighting against the unilateral decision of shutting down the channel without any prior notice. While our discussions are ongoing with the present management represented by Jupally Rameshawara Rao and P.V.Krishna Reddy of My Home and MEIL Pvt Ltd, some elements have forged a letter that our ex-CEO swindled money meant for the employees. We request you to kindly investigate the source of this letter and book the culprits who are spreading these false messages. We suspect that these rumors are spread by Jupally Rameshwara Rao (My Home Group) and P.V.Krishna Reddy (MEIL) with the help of 10TV Input Editor Sateesh Devella. Certain websites which are hand in glove with these elements started spreading the same rumors. We as employees union of Mojo TV request you to register cases abd take appropriate action.
D. Vijaya Kumar
Mojo TV Employees’ Union"
