GIRI The Andhra Pradesh High Court on Tuesday (April 7, 2026) granted bail to Kesireddy Rajasekhar Reddy, alias Raj Kesireddy, the main accused in the alleged ₹3,200 crore Andhra Pradesh liquor scam. The Supreme Court had rejected Mr. Kesireddy’s bail plea in February 2026, observing that corruption of such magnitude was not possible without a criminal nexus between bureaucrats and political leaders, and that he was not an ordinary person and could not compare himself with the other accused.
